Apollo 17, last lunar landing, launched 40 years ago today. Apollo 17, the last of the missions to land men on the moon, began 40 years ago today with the dawning of a man-made sun. Lifting off just after midnight on Dec. 7, 1972, the Apollo 17 mission was the final of NASA's moon-bound manned flights â and the first night launch.
Relatively little is said in the American media about this aspect of the Moon landings: how remarkably short the era of lunar exploration actually wasâless than three and a half years. Apollo XI landed on July 20, 1969. The last men to walk on the Moon, the astronauts of Apollo XVII, returned to Earth on December 19, 1972, while Richard Nixon was still in the White House, the Vietnam War was still raging, and before half the world's current population were born.
