Apollo 17: Shorty Crater Panorama

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

In December of 1972, Apollo 17 astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt spent about 75 hours on the Moon in the Taurus-Littrow valley, while colleague Ronald Evans orbited overhead. This panorama is digitally stitched together from pictures taken by Cernan as he and Schmitt roamed the valley floor. Starting with a view of the South Massif, the panorama reveals Schmitt and the lunar rover at the edge of Shorty Crater. This is near the spot where geologist Schmitt discovered orange soil.
