Eugene Andrew "Gene" Cernan was born in Chicago in 1934 to a Slovak
father and a Czech mother. During his military career he was a Naval
Officer, Fighter Pilot and Astronaut. Eugene Cernan went into space
three times, Gemini 9A, Apollo 10 and Apollo 17 he also was backup for
Gemini 12, Apollo7 and Apollo 14.
On one of Gene Cernan's EVAs he wrote the initials of his daughter
Tracy on a moon rock and he was the last man to leave the moon. A
couple of other accomplishments are attributed to him, while piloting
the Lunar Rover on its final ride he set a new speed record for the
moon, 11.2 mph. Another speed record he was involved with was during
the return of Apollo 10 from the moon on May 26, 1969. The capsule
reached a speed of 24,791 mph, making it the highest speed ever reached
by a manned vehicle. In 1976 Captain Eugene Cernan retired from
military life for the private business world.
Gene Cernan passed away on January 16, 2017.
