Harrison Schmitt (Apollo 17)
The last view witnessed by humans from the Moon's surface, from the LM Pilot window before liftoff, post EVA 3, 7-19 December 1972
Vintage gelatin silver print on fiber-based paper, printed 1972, numbered "NASA AS17-143-21946" (NASA MSC) in black in top margin, 20,3 x 25,4 cm
Harrison Schmitt took this photograph, one of the last photographs just before liftoff, toward Old Family Mountain (center left) and the left flank of the North Massif (right) which form the skyline in the background.
Rover tracks in the far left distance lead to the research site (out of shot to the left, 190 m away).
The last footprints and rover tracks made by the humans on the Moon are visible in the foreground.
“As we complete our third and final day on the surface of the Moon, Challenger’s miniature picture window looks out on a valley transformed, though less than its explorers. [...] This valley of history has seen man complete his first steps into the universe. From this larger home we move to the great future.”
Harrison Schmitt (National Geographic, September 1973, p. 305)
