It has been called the "most significant photo of the 20th Century". This is the only human-witnessed full Earth, the African and Antarctic continents plainly visible. It was summer in the Southern hemisphere, and winter in the North. Apollo 17 was the only mission to view the Earth in this full phase, and even modern weather satellites cannot duplicate this extreme southern view, as they are in equatorial orbits. This framed color glossy photograph was reproduced from a NASA transparency. It is double matted and framed in a heavy 1 1/2"-wide glossy black anodized (not painted) black frame, with sturdy, clear plexiglass, and ready to hang. The framing job is top notch--even though we didn't do it! This was originally a product of a now-defunct company called Space Focus, who turned over their remaining inventory (less than 300) of these beautiful unsigned, framed photos to Captain Cernan. He then called us to see if we would be interested in offering them to our customers. "If you'll autograph them," we said. "No problem," said Cernan, and personally flew to our Tucson gallery to sign them. Our staff gleefully disassembled each one, then reassembled them with a fresh, bold, shining silver autograph from the last man to walk the Moon. Thus, we are offering is this stunning photo, autographed by the interplanetary photographer. It is a large, crisp, colorful image of the final full Earth of the golden age of space exploration--the Apollo Moon landings. The finished size is a little over 27" square. An impressive piece for home, office, or boardroom. We are the exclusive dealers, and the autograph is certified authentic. We even have a photo of Captain Cernan signing the piece in our shop, which is included on the certificate of authenticity. Captain Cernan also includes some of his personal thoughts on the photo. Quantity is limited.

Gene Cernan drove the rover in a large circle at the site, and the orange sensor cables for the experiment were laid in the rover's tracks. The instrument was fouled with the ubiquitous moondust, however, and failed. Cernan's shadow can be seen, and the LM in the distance.

Jack Schmitt examines the rock at left. Cernan and Schmitt visited this site on their 3rd and last EVA. The LM can be seen with a keen eye, just to the right of the peak of the rock. The light patch is the dust scattered by the landing, and the LM is in the right third of the patch.

Eugene Andrew Cernan, born March 14, 1934, in Chicago Illinois, is a former American astronaut of Czech and Slovak ancestry. He has been into space three times: as co-pilot of Gemini 9A in June 1966; as lunar module pilot of Apollo 10 in May 1969; and as commander of Apollo 17 in December 1972. In that final lunar landing mission, Cernan became "the last man on the moon" since he was the last to re-enter the Apollo Lunar Module during its third and final extra-vehicular activity (EVA). He was also a backup crew member for the Gemini 12, Apollo 7 and Apollo 14 missions.
Gene Cernan is one of only three men to voyage to the moon on two different occasions (the others being Jim Lovell and John Young), and one of only twelve men to walk on the moon. Cernan orbited the moon on Apollo 10, and landed on the moon on Apollo 17.
While on the moon on Apollo 17 he and his crewmate Harrison Schmitt performed three EVAs for a total of about 22 hours of exploration. Their first EVA alone was over three times the length Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin spent outside the LM on Apollo 11. During this time they covered over 35 kilometers in the Lunar Rover and spent a great deal of time collecting geologic samples that would shed light on the moon's early history.
As Cernan got ready to climb the ladder he spoke these words, the last ever spoken by a man standing on the moon's surface: "As we leave the Moon at Taurus-Littrow, we leave as we came, and God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind. As I take these last steps from the surface for some time to come, I'd just like to record that America's challenge of today has forged man's destiny of tomorrow. Godspeed the crew of Apollo Seventeen."
