Eugene Cernan, Apollo 17. Artwork of US and NASA astronaut Eugene Cernan (1934-2017) saluting the US flag (Lunar Flag Assembly) left on the Moon during the Apollo 17 mission. The flag had a horizontal strut to support it on the airless Moon. This mission, the last Apollo mission, landed in the Taurus-Littrow region of the Moon. Cernan's co-lander was US astronaut Harrison Schmitt. They explored the area for three days (11-14 December 1972). Cernan was the last person to walk on the Moon. His departing words were: 'we leave as we came and, God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind. Godspeed the crew of Apollo 17'.

During this mission, astronaut John Watts Young (born 1930) achieved a lunar wheeled vehicle speed record of 18 kilometres per hour. Apollo 16 landed two astronauts in the Descartes Highlands for just under three days, from 21-24 April 1972, the other being US astronaut Charles Duke. Young and Duke carried out three excursions on the lunar surface, and collected over 90 kilograms of lunar rocks.

The Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) is a battery-powered four-wheeled rover used on the Moon in the last three missions of the American Apollo program (15, 16, and 17) during 1971 and 1972. Built by Boeing, each LRV has a mass of 462 pounds without payload. It could carry a maximum payload of 970 pounds, including two astronauts, equipment, and cargo such as lunar samples, and was designed for a top speed of 6 miles per hour, although it achieved a top speed of 11.2 miles per hour on its last mission, Apollo 17.
