Description

Official NASA color glossy photo measuring 10” x 7.75” (with a NASA red# S-72-50438) of the crew of Apollo 17 posing outdoors with the lunar rover, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, "To the Norman family, best of luck, Ron Evans, Apollo 17, 7/1/88," "Gene Cernan," and "Harrison H. Schmitt.” Reverse bears "This Paper Manufactured by Kodak" watermarks. In fine condition, with a slightly trimmed top edge.
Presents beautifully and is a difficult crew to get given Evan's death in 1990 and Dr. Schmitt's reluctance to sign. HARD TO FIND!
Each crew member’s autograph has been fully authenticated by PSA/DNA and is accompanied by a full PSA/DNA Letter of Authentication.
Apollo was the third human spaceflight program undertaken by NASA and, whilst the goal of the program as articulated by President Kennedy was accomplished, the program did set other major milestones in the history of human spaceflight. The Apollo program remains alone in sending manned missions beyond low Earth orbit. Apollo 17 marks the time of the last moonwalk and also the last manned mission beyond earth orbit.
The Apollo 17 crew consisted of Commander Eugene A. Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald E. Evans and Lunar Module Pilot Harrison H. Schmitt. The Apollo 17 mission was the eleventh manned mission in the Apollo space program and was the first to launch at night. The mission launched on December 7, 1972, and landed on December 11, 1972, were astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt spent 72 hours on the lunar surface.
