Why ?? "I'd always planned to leave it on the moon," Duke told Business Insider. "So when I dropped it, it was just to show the kids that I really did leave it on the moon."

The photo has since been featured in numerous popular photo books and is a great example of the "human side of space exploration," Duke said.
