Most people, however, cannot remember who the last man on the moon was - it was Gene Cernan. It appears that almost all recollection of Cernan has been erased from the collective American memory.

Godspeed the crew of Apollo 17." As a favor to Gene, I have listed some snippets about him: Both Armstrong and Cernan have s Read More Go to Site
