Figure 97-(a) caption: The final geologic field exercise for the Apollo 17 crew--and for the Apollo Programoccurred 2-3 November 1972 at Sunset Crater National Monument and the Cinder Lake Crater Field just northeast of Flagstaff, Arizona: (a) Gene Cernan (yellow jacket and "70's" pants) and Jack Schmitt on platform containing the Geological Survey's canvas simulation of the Lunar Module (LM) ascent stage. The astronauts, to describe their surrounding before egression onto the "lunar" surface, used the LM windows--at the same height above the surface as those on the actual LM--during the test. The snow-covered San Francisco Peaks are prominent in the background; NASA photo S-72-54547. Published as Figure 097a in...
