EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the US history of manned space flight. Taken during the Apollo 17 mission on December 11,1972, it showcases astronaut Harrison Schmitt collecting lunar rake samples at the Taurus-Littrow landing site on the moon. The image was skillfully captured by Astronaut Eugene Cernan, who served as the commander of Apollo 17. In this remarkable snapshot, Schmitt can be seen utilizing the lunar rake, an essential tool used for gathering discrete samples of rocks and rock chips from the lunar surface. These samples varied in size from one-half inch to one inch and played a crucial role in advancing our understanding of extraterrestrial geology. Apollo 17 holds a significant place in human space exploration as it marked humanity's most recent visit to our celestial neighbor – the moon. This awe-inspiring photograph serves as a testament to mankind's insatiable curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge beyond Earth's boundaries. As we gaze upon this horizontal composition, we are reminded not only of NASA's extraordinary achievements but also of humanity's indomitable spirit that propels us towards new frontiers.
