During each of the six Apollo lunar landings, the astronauts carried several checklists to the lunar surface and back :
The most important of these checklists is known as the "Lunar Surface Checklist". This checklist was the primary working-document used in the lunar module on the Moon. Indeed, this was the checklist that the astronauts actually used to record their observations while still on the Moon. From the private collection of and certified by Gene Cernan - FLOWN TO THE LUNAR SURFACE DURING THE LAST APOLLO FLIGHT - Apollo 17. One of the most historic documents of the Apollo program - this is the actual checklist page used by the astronauts as they suited-up to step on the Moon for the last time!
"Page 6-1 + 6-2" page from the lunar surface checklist - actually used by Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt. This 5.5 x 8 inch checklist page is printed on both sides and certified by Gene Cernan on the front.
Since this page was used when they were already wearing their dust coated EVA suits the backside got heavily contaminated with lunar dust from Apollo 17 which can be easily seen with the naked eye and even better recognized as lunar dust under a microscope.
It comes with an 8x10 photo documentation of Cernan holding the entire checklist. A fascinating and unique piece of history that was not only flown to the moon but actually used in the lunar module while on the lunar surface !
Relive mankinds last lunar EVA !
