RIP, Captain Cernan. A great man.
Last Man on the Moon is on NETFLIX.
I was very lucky and met him in the mid 90's. His son in law was my boss and I just tagged along to his house for a couple of beers. To hear him bark about the geese and ducks spoiling his pool was hilarious.
He asked me to look at the points on his late 60's gold Corvette (similar to the ones the Mercury astronauts were given from NASA). I know he did that just to let me fiddle with THAT car.
