50 years ago today, Gene Cernan became the last person to stand on the Moon. Before his return to the #Apollo17 lunar module, he said: “We leave as we came and, God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind. Godspeed the crew of Apollo 17.” #Apollo50th

Farewell, Moon. 👋 #Apollo17 lifted off the lunar surface #OTD in 1972, bringing a successful end to the Apollo program. The astronauts spent nearly 22 hrs outside their lander, drove 22 mi in their rover, & collected 243 lbs of samples during a mission that lasted 12.6 days.
