Harrison Schmitt the lunar module pilot on Apollo 17 was a geologist. He was the only scientist in the astronaut corps at the time. He was not originally assigned to that mission but when the scientific community started crabbing about the failure of NASA to send a geologist on any of the missions to the moon, the guy assigned to the mission got the bad news.
