GEMINI IX & APOLLO 17

Gemini IX Pilot Gene Cernan's "Spacewalk from Hell", 5 June 1966, & Apollo 17 Lunar Module Pilot Ron Evans' Spacewalk, 17 December 1972


Two vintage Chromogenic prints on 𝐆fiber-based paper with "A Kodak Paper" waterma🐈rk on verso, each 11 by 14 inches, NASA negative numbers S66-38515 and AS-17-152-23391.


Eugene Cernan, Gemini IX Pilot, performed his two 2 hour and 8 minute long "Spacewalk from Hell" in which he almost didn't make it back alive. Nearly blinded by a malf✨unctioning spacesuit, and exhausted from trying to maintain command over himself while spinning out of control, Cernan kept calm under pressure. And, with the help of his crewmate, Tom Stafford, Cernan managed to regain entry into the capsule. Ron Evans, Apollo 17 Command Module Pilot, performed a spacewalk las✱ting 1 hour and 7 minutes during the spacecraft's trans-Earth coast, retrieving film cassettes from the Lunar Sounder, Mapping Camera, and Panoramic Camera.
