AS17-137-21011 (12 Dec. 1972) --- An excellent view of the desolate lunarscape at Station 4 showing scientist-astronaut Harrison H. Schmitt; lunar module pilot; working at the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) during the second Apollo 17 extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Taurus-Littrow landing site. This is the area where Schmitt first spotted the orange soil; the orange soil is clearly visible on either side of the LRV in this picture. Shorty Crater is to the right; and the peak in the center background is Family Mountain. A portion of South Massif is on the horizon at the left edge. This photograph was taken by astronaut Eugene A. Cernan; commander. While astronauts Cernan and Schmitt descended in the Lunar Module (LM) "Challenger" to explore the moon; astronaut Ronald E. Evans; command module pilot; remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit.
