Eugene Cernan stepped onto the ladder of the lunar module Challenger, leaving the 20th century's final foot-print on the lunar surface on December 14, 1972. He was born on March 14, 1934. The number of astronauts who walked on the Moon still remained at 12.
"I stood in the blue darkness and looked in awe at the Earth from the lunar surface. What I saw was almost too beautiful to grasp." --Eugene Cernan--
