The astronauts who flew the Apollo 14 mission were Commander Alan Shepard, Command Module Pilot Stuart Roosa, and Lunar Module Pilot Edgar Mitchell. The astronauts of the backup crew were Commander Eugene A. Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald E. Evans, Jr. and Lunar Module Pilot Joseph H. Engle.
The lunar module used during the Apollo 14 mission was named "Antares".
People who have walked on the moonThere have been six manned flights to the moon (Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15 16, and 17). All six flights were manned by three astronauts: The CommanderThe Command Module PilotThe Lunar Module pilot.The Commander and Lunar Module pilot went all the way to the surface of the moon. The Command Module pilot remained with the Command Module orbiting the moon during the lunar excursion.The men who actually walked on the moon are:Apollo 11 -Neil Armstrong (Commander, first person to walk on the Moon)Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin (Lunar Module pilot)Apollo 12 -Charles Conrad, Jr. (Commander)Alan LaVerne Bean (Lunar Module pilot)Apollo 14 -Alan Shepard (Commander, also first US man in space, 1961)Edgar Mitchell (Lunar Module Pilot)Apollo 15 -David Scott (Commander)James Irwin (Lunar Module pilot)Apollo 16 -John Young (Commander)Charles Duke, Jr. (Lunar Module pilot)Apollo 17 -Eugene Cernan (Commander, last man to walk on the moon December 14, 1972)Dr Harrison Schmitt (Lunar Module Pilot, first scientist-astronaut to land on Moon)As of 2011, only these 12 men have walked on the Moon, and each man was only there once.
The crew members of Apollo 14 were Alan Shepard, Edgar Mitchell, and Stuart Roosa. Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell performed two moonwalks during the mission. Stuart Roosa remained in lunar orbit as the command module pilot.
Yes. There were 12 American astronauts who walked on the Moon, two on each of six Apollo missions flown by NASA between 1969 and 1972.

Apollo 11's crew was Neil Armstrong (Commander), Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin (Lunar Module pilot), and Michael Collins (Command Module pilot). Apollo 12's crew was Charles Conrad, Jr. (Commander), Alan LaVerne Bean (Lunar Module pilot) and Richard Gordon, Jr. (Command Module pilot). Apollo 14's crew was Alan Shepard (Commander), and Edgar Mitchell (Lunar Module Pilot), Stuart Roosa (Command Module pilot). Apollo 15's crew was David Scott (Commander), James Irwin (Lunar Module pilot), and Alfred Worden (Command Module Pilot). Apollo 16's crew was John Young (Commander), Charles Duke, Jr. (Lunar Module pilot), and Thomas Mattingly (Command Module pilot). Apollo 17's crew was Eugene Cernan (Commander), Dr Harrison Schmitt (Lunar Module Pilot), and Ronald Evans (Command Module Pilot). Neil Armstrong (Apollo 11's Commander) was the first person to walk on the moon. Alan Shepherd (Apollo 14's Commander) was America's first man into space. Dr Harrison Schmitt (Apollo 17's Lunar Module Pilot) was the first scientist-astronaut to land on Moon - Dr Harrison Schmitt who received a Ph.D. in Geology from Harvard University in 1964
The crew members of Apollo 14 were Alan Shepard, Edgar Mitchell, and Stuart Roosa. Alan Shepard was the mission commander, Edgar Mitchell was the lunar module pilot, and Stuart Roosa was the command module pilot.
Command Module Pilot Stuart Roosa remained in orbit in the "Kitty Hawk" while Commander Alan Shepard and Lunar Module Pilot Edgar Mitchell landed the "Antares" in the "Fra Mauro" formation on February 5th of 1971. They had launched on January 31st and returned to the Earth on February 9th.

Actually, 11 of the 12 men to walk on the moon where involved with Scouting. All were Boy Scouts with the exception of Pete Conrad Commander of Apollo 12 he was the only Cub Scout to walk on the moon.Neil Armstrong, commander Apollo 11 - Eagle ScoutSecond: Buzz Aldrin, lunar module pilot Apollo 11 - Tenderfoot ScoutThird: Pete Conrad, commander Apollo 12 - Cub Scout (unknown rank)Fourth: Alan Bean, lunar module pilot Apollo 12 - First Class ScoutFifth: Alan Shepard, commander Apollo 14 - First Class ScoutSixth: Edgar Mitchell, lunar module pilot Apollo 14 - Life ScoutSeventh: David Scott, commander Apollo 15 - Life ScoutEighth: Jim Irwin, lunar module pilot Apollo 15 - NON SCOUTNinth: John Young, commander Apollo 16 - Second Class ScoutTenth: Charlie Duke, lunar module pilot Apollo 16 - Eagle ScoutEleventh: Gene Cernan, commander Apollo 17 - Second Class ScoutTwelve: Harrison Schmitt, lunar module pilot Apollo 17 - Tenderfoot Scout
Apollo 14 was the eighth manned mission in the Apollo program. Alan Shepard commanded the mission, Stuart Roosa acted as the Command Module Pilot, and Edgar Mitchell acted as the Lunar module pilot. Only Shepard and Mitchell actually walked on the moon, however; Roosa remained in orbit performing experiments and taking pictures of the moon.
