Cosmos 544 was launched by the U.S.S.R. from Plesetsk into orbit with 547-km (339.9-mi) apogee, 510-km (316.9-mi) perigee, 95.1-min period, and 74.0° inclination. (GSFC SSR, 1/31/73; SBD, 1/23/73, 109)
The training version of Apollo 17 lunar roving vehicle (LRV), participating in President Nixon's inaugural parade, required replacement of two batteries to negotiate the distance from the Capitol to the White House, because batteries had only 30-min life. Apollo 17 Astronauts Eugene A. Cernan, Ronald E. Evans, and Dr. Harrison H. Schmitt watched the battery change from an automobile following the LRV in the procession. (Av Wk, 1/29/73, 13)
