Title: Astronauts Evans and Cernan aboard the Apollo 17 spacecraft
Description:
Scientist-Astronaut Harrison H. "Jack" Schmitt, Apollo 17 lunar module
pilot, took this photograph of his two fellow crewmen under zero-gravity
conditions aboard the Apollo 17 spacecraft during the final lunar landing
mission in the Apollo program. That is Astronaut Eugene A. Cernan
(foreground), commander, who is seemingly "right side up." Astronaut
Ronald E. Evans, command module pilot, appears to be "upside down."
