Explanation:
Get out your red/blue glasses
and
check out this
stereo scene from Taurus-Littrow valley on the Moon!
The color
anaglyph
features a detailed 3D view of
Apollo 17's
Lunar Rover
in the foreground -- behind it lies
the Lunar Module and distant lunar hills.
Because the world was
going to be able
to watch
the Lunar Module's
ascent stage liftoff via the rover's TV camera,
this parking place was also known as
the VIP Site.
In December
of 1972, Apollo 17 astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison
Schmitt spent about 75 hours on the Moon, while colleague Ronald Evans
orbited overhead.
The crew returned with 110 kilograms of
rock and soil samples,
more than from any of the other lunar landing sites.
Cernan and Schmitt are still the last
to walk (or drive)
on the Moon.
und die NASA sagt nicht eindeutig sie habe die tapes von Apollo 17 noch oder ob sie die auch verschlampt haben. Sie sagen nur "some original versions of the converted video for the Apollo 12 through Apollo 17 flights are still in NASA(...)"
