On December 7, 1972, NASA launched Apollo 17, a lunar mission crewed by Eugene Cernan, Ronald Evans and Harrison Schmitt. It would be the last time humans traveled beyond low Earth orbit, the last time man landed on another celestial body, and the last time man went to the moon. The Last Steps uses rare, heart-pounding footage and audio to retrace the record-setting mission.
Directed by Todd Douglas Miller, The Last Steps leans on a strong ensemble — Eugene Cernan, Ronald E. Evans, Harrison Schmitt — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
