This image showcases Hubble Space Telescope's first high-resolution ultraviolet
and visible imaging of the Apollo 17 landing region within the Taurus-Littrow valley
of the Moon. Humans last walked and drove on the lunar surface in this
region (marked + in the image at left and lower right) in December 1972.
