No, the shuttle never landed on the moon. (At least not that THEY've told
us about :-) Various shuttle missions have used the Compass, the 1910,
and the 1530.

In fact, NASA orignally funded GRiD to build the Compass just for this
purpose, AFAIK. GRiD stood for Graphical Retreival Information Display or
somesuch terribly strained acronym.
