'Gene Cernan, the last man to walk on the moon, ghas died aged 82.
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38641121
Captain Cernan was one of only three people to go to the Moon twice and the last man to leave a footprint on the lunar surface in 1972.
The final words he spoke there were: "We leave as we came and, God willing, as we shall return with peace and hope for all mankind."
RIP

They showed an interview with him this morning. That walk on the moon had a very profound effect on him for a long time.
