"Tim’s deep-seated belief in the power of our science, and his first-hand knowledge of what it meant to work together with a common vision, is what made him impervious to the fear [of articulating an ambition for our science that might communicate uncertainty].“
To pay tribute to Tim Palmer's manifold contributions to science, our director Bjorn Stevens has written an article in the Festschrift honoring Tim. Read through the posts yourself: https://bit.ly/42qXWFT

A plane-polarized light image of the Apollo 17 orange glass (sample 74220). The high-titanium glass spheres are 50-100 microns in size. These were magmas erupted as a 'fire fountain' on the mare basalt surface.

This sample was part of a collection of lunar sections that NASA lent to educational institutions in the US for teaching.

My favorite picture from Ars Technica article on Apollo 17. https://arstechnica.com/science/2022/12/fifty-years-later-remastered-images-reveal-apollo-17-in-stunning-clarity/ #apollo17 #nasa

No quarantine for these guys. 50 years ago today, the #Apollo17 crew were back in Houston to reunite with their families and headed back to work the next day.

What I appreciate about this comparison of #Apollo17 & #Artemis1 is the kicker at the end reminding me how much has changed in those “50 laps around the sun” https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/14/science/apollo-17-moon-50th-anniversary.html?unlocked_article_code=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACEIPuonUktbfqYhlSlUaBybOVtkqqBaLwvHXx7g4gTqnc22QTjFEirlNH4jF8kHLZLRufcA6xSXdRMNENPVnYs1O-dJlHh4nTRi08NzDkY4ZIi4xpMXsVD1ugsLAB_VjqW_nKzTgcro6zeCz4FePbzLuUPbZgSUkJlp1sNAyIwHRrH8LxqfFEuVyy4M-ia9nXsYmMG9GMCqavPDoCAF9O8GGb3zc6Ao2X-JZWFLDjILWquJAIEgJVwWwHD4o6n086dhdJNoUIK_-ShUhc8H5ir4SYXd6Bqsr-FIzlXGc_mqA_cjc2Q&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

#OTD in 1972, the final crewed mission to the #Moon splashed down in the Pacific. Last week, we completed the wildly successful #Artemis1 mission the same way. And soon, we will be sending humans back. This time to stay. #WeAreGoing

Fifty years ago from now, the Apollo 17 command module landed safely in the Pacific Ocean, bringing to an end the Apollo lunar landings.

No person has been to the Moon for half a century now, and no person has travelled further than low Earth orbit in that time.

50 years ago today, the last lunar landing mission of the Apollo program was completed when #Apollo17 command module "America" splashed down in the Pacific.

When #Apollo17 splashed down in the Pacific, a recovery team was waiting on the USS Ticonderoga just 6.4 km (4 mi) away to pick up the astronauts and the lunar samples inside the CM.
