Harrison Schmitt, born on July 3, 1935, is an American geologist, astronaut, and former politician. He is best known for being one of the 12 astronauts who walked on the moon as part of NASA's Apollo program. Schmitt was the last of the Apollo astronauts to step onto the lunar surface during the Apollo 17 mission in December 1972.
Selected as a NASA astronaut in 1965, Schmitt served as a backup lunar module pilot for the Apollo 15 mission. However, due to changes in the astronaut rotation schedule, he was assigned as the lunar module pilot for Apollo 17. During this mission, Schmitt spent three days on the moon's surface, conducting experiments, collecting samples, and exploring the Taurus-Littrow valley.
