Nice choice.
The "only scientist" bit always sat a little uneasily with me. These astronauts were highly trained pilots with degrees, some had doctorates, etc. Engineering, nuclear physics, orbital mechanics, etc. Sure, Jack Schmitt was a geologist, but I think these guys were all scientists to some extent.
