Harrison Schmitt Signed Moonwalker 8x10 Photo Inscribed "Apollo 17" (PSA COA)

Photo measures 8" x 10" in size and has been hand-signed in black felt-tip pen by Harrison Schmitt. Please note the inscription is personalized to Barbara.

In December 1972, as one of the crew on board Apollo 17, Schmitt became the first member of NASA's first scientist-astronaut group to fly in space. As Apollo 17 was the last of the Apollo missions, he also became the twelfth and second youngest person to set foot on the Moon, and the second-to-last person to step off of the Moon (he boarded the Lunar Module shortly before commander Eugene Cernan). Schmitt also remains the first and only professional scientist to have flown beyond low Earth orbit and to have visited the Moon.[3] He was influential within the community of geologists supporting the Apollo program and, before starting his own preparations for an Apollo mission, had been one of the scientists training those Apollo astronauts chosen to visit the lunar surface.

The lot / autograph(s) includes an official PSA/DNA hologram and matching COA for authenticity purposes.
