English: AS17-147-22527 (12 Dec. 1972) --- Astronaut Eugene A. Cernan, Apollo 17 mission commander, makes a short checkout of the Lunar Roving Vehicle during the early part of the first Apollo 17 extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Taurus-Littrow landing site. The Lunar Module is in the background. This photograph was taken by scientist-astronaut Harrison H. Schmitt, lunar module pilot.
This photo was used in Figure 4-18 of the Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report (SP-330, 1973), which has the following caption:
Shortly after deployment, the CDR drove the LRV through a series of maneuvers to check out the performance of the vehicle. The LRV was then loaded with tools, experiment hardware, a TV camera, and antennas. South Massif, the crest of which is 2500 m above the valley floor, forms the skyline 5 km behind the LM. The bands of dark gray are LRV tracks; bootprints in the lunar surface are visible near the right margin of the photograph.
