Title: Crescent Earth Rising Behind Moon, Apollo 17
Caption: The crescent Earth rises above the lunar horizon in this photograph taken from the Apollo 17 spacecraft in lunar orbit during National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) final lunar landing mission in the Apollo program. While astronauts Eugene A. Cernan, commander, and Harrison H.

Evans, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) "America" in lunar orbit.
