Last words spoken by man on the moon
Gene Cernan Signed Large Apollo 17 Lunar Surface Color Photo
with Extensive Handwritten Quote. A fabulous 20" x 16" silk
finish photo on Kodak Endura paper, a view of the Lunar Module
Challenger and American flag. Captain Cernan has written his
last words on the moon in black felt tip, as follows: "I'd like
to just say what I believe history will record/ That America's
challenge of today has forged man's/ destiny of tomorrow. And, 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./
God Speed the Crew of Apollo XVII/ Gene Cernan/ Apollo XVII/
Commander/ Dec 1972". This photo and these words capture the
essence of man's journeys to the moon, the last of which was Apollo
17. Outstanding display piece. Excellent.
