Mental Floss has some awesome out-of-left-field quizzes sometimes, and this one's pretty cool for a space geek. They have a list of twelve people who are either Apollo astronauts or lesser-known pro golfers. I got 12 out of 12 simply by clicking "Apollo Astronaut" if the name sounded familiar. ;-)
So, test your space geekery!
Apollo Astronaut or Pro Golfer?
Amazingly, no mention is made of Alan Shepherd's lunar golf shot. And, rather distressingly, it asks "Can you pick them out from another group composed largely of semi-obscure white men—lower-ranked professional golfers?" This implies that Apollo astronauts, apart from Armstrong and Aldrin, are obscure. While true, it seems kinda sad. It's not like there are a lot of them.
