Night launch of Apollo 17. It was the final mission of NASA's Apollo program with Commander Eugene Cernan, Lunar Module Pilot Harrison Schmitt, and Command Module Pilot Ronald Evans. • The video combines multiple camera angles and audio sources, presented at approximate real speed. Assembled from several NASA, public domain and historical documentaries. • Launched at 12:33 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on December 7, 1972, Apollo 17 was a J-type mission that included three days on the lunar surface, extended scientific capability, and the use of the third Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV). • Cernan and Schmitt landed in the Taurus–Littrow valley and completed three moonwalks, taking lunar samples and deploying scientific instruments. The landing site had been chosen to further the mission's main goals: to sample lunar highland material older than Mare Imbrium, and to investigate the possibility of relatively recent volcanic activity. Evans remained in lunar orbit in the command and service module (CSM), taking scientific measurements and photographs. • #Apollo17 #SaturnV #NASA #Apollo
