Description
Eugene Cernan (American, 1934-2017)
Lunarscape, Shorty Crater, Station 4, EVA 2, Apollo 17, December 1972. Numbered 'NASA AS17-137-21004' (NASA MSC) in red on the recto u.l. margin. Vintage chromogenic print on fiber-based Kodak paper with 'A Kodak Paper' watermark on the verso, image size 7 1/8 x 7 in. (18.0 x 17.5 cm), unmatted.
Condition: Minor water damage or similar to l.l. corner of sheet.
N.B. This Station 4 stop was made to investigate the possibility that the 110-meter-diameter crater was actually a volcanic structure. The famous "orange soil" was discovered at this site. Shorty is actually an impact crater and the orange soil is an older volcanic deposit. The North Massif is in the background. 'A geologist's paradise, if I ever saw one.' remembered Harrison Schmitt in National Geographic (September 1973, p. 301).
Estimate $300-500
