"Dr Harrison Hagan "Jack" Schmitt (born July 3, 1935) is an American Geologist , a retired NASA Astronaut, University professor, former US Senator for New Mexico and one of only 12 men who have ever walked on the moon.

He was the twelfth and last of the Apollo astronauts to arrive and set foot on the moon, Schmitt was also the only geologist to have walked on the moon during the Apollo 17 Mission to the Taurus-Littrow valley in 1972"

Can you imagine having a CV that says:

...and one of only 12 men who have ever walked on the moon.

That is so cool!
