The crew of Apollo 17 took this photo 19,473 days ago.

If all goes well, we should have a new one in six days' time.

Been a while, and I'm not going to turn down any new pretty pictures or cool science.

It's just a shame the whole event is so dreadfully silly at conception. The entire endeavour is based on revisiting past glories like a faded sports-kid. At least the showing-off during the cold war was based on explaining that an arbitrary payload could be plopped down any place your adversary chose.
