Michael Collins stayed in lunar orbit while Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon.

My grandmother had measles when she was a baby. I would never want to catch measles.
The third astronaut of Apollo 13 was Thomas. k. Mattingly, he was grounded as he had measles.
In the Apollo 13 space flight astronaut Thomas K. Mat tingly was grounded as he had measles. In a way he must have thanked his stars.
In the Apollo 13 space flight astronaut Thomas K. Mat tingly was grounded as he had measles. In a way he must have thanked his stars.
The name of that astronaut was Thomas. K. Mat tingly and he was first chosen to fly in the Apollo 13 with James Lovell , Fred. w. Haise . So the back up astronaut Jack Swigert took his place.
He had been exposed to another astronaut that had the measles. Because Ken had never had the measles the flight surgeon was concerned about Ken contracting the illness while in space. He therefore grounded Ken, prohibiting him from flying the Apollo 13 mission.

A few weeks earlier Thomas K. Mattingly got measles and was grounded. Astronaut Jack Swigert took his place.
He had the Measles.
The difference of the apollo 11 astronauts wand the Apollo 17 astronaut was that in Apollo 17 astronaut Harrison Schmitt was a scientist, while All in the Apollo 11 were astronauts.
