拍品专文

673 a
Cernan went east of the LM next to the American flag with his camera to take this beautiful “tourist” portrait of the Taurus-Littrow landing site.

“When we had color film in one of the cameras - usually in Cernan’s camera - we were making the first use of a brand new Kodak Ektachrome film.”
Harrison Schmitt (from the ALSJ mission transcript at 146:08:41)

673 b
A superb “tourist” photograph of Cernan posing with the Lunar Rover at the Taurus-Littrow landing site at the end of the last EVA on the lunar surface.

Following the mission, NASA released a variant of this image (AS17-134-20476).

169:39:46 Schmitt: Ed (Fendell at Mission Control), you’ve got your camera (the TV camera of the Rover) in the way.
169:39:48 Cernan: Oh, just take them straight on. That’s all right.
169:39:50 Schmitt: (Taking pictures toward the Rover) That’s sort of...(garbled). Okay. (Laughs) Such (a) pose. (Pause) Let me get a little different (pause) focus. (Pause) That looks good.
169:40:09 Cernan: Okay.
169:40:10 Schmitt: (I’ll) try one more over here. Have your pick. (Pause) One more.
169:40:15 Cernan: How’s like this? (Pause)

673 c
169:44:45 Cernan: It’s a rock composed of many fragments, of many sizes, and many shapes,
probably from all parts of the Moon, perhaps billions of years old. But fragments of all sizes and shapes - and even colors - that have grown together to become a cohesive rock, outlasting the nature of space, sort of living together in a very coherent, very peaceful manner. When we return this rock or some of the others like it to Houston, we’d like to share a piece of this rock with so many of the countries throughout the world. We hope that this will be a symbol of what our feelings are, what the feelings of the Apollo Program are, and a symbol of mankind that we can live in peace and harmony in the future.
