Audiovisual collection, 1968 - 2015
Scope and Contents
This series contains non-photographic audiovisual media, including video tapes, cassettes, films, CDs, and DVDs. Many of the materials were professionally produced for public audiences such as news specials, documentaries, television appearances, public appearances, conferences, public service announcements, charity and promotional events, and commemorations, which usually (but not always) feature and/or interview Cernan.
Topics generally involve space exploration, fellow astronauts, and the Apollo and Gemini programs. Of special note are audio recordings of Cernan reading his book, The Last Man on the Moon.
