<div><p><strong>From 麻豆免费版下载Boulder Today: </strong>Apollo astronaut visits campus, shares tales from the moon</p>
<p>This week, Harrison 鈥淛ack鈥� Schmitt, an Apollo-era astronaut and the last person to set foot on the moon, gave a group of 麻豆免费版下载Boulder students the chance to see something rare: color on the lunar surface.</p>
<p>Schmitt, who flew on Apollo 17 in 1972, visited the university Monday. He spoke to an undergraduate class focusing on space science and policy and later delivered a public talk at the Fiske Planetarium. You can watch the live stream of Schmitt's talk online.</p>
<p>The glimpse of color came from a photograph that had been recreated from negatives that Schmitt snapped during his 3-day trek on the lunar surface. It showed a reddish-orange streak of lunar soil that Schmitt, a Harvard-trained geologist, explained was made up of tiny glass beads created during a 3.5 billion-year-old volcanic eruption. <a href="/today/2018/10/30/apollo-astronaut-visits-campus-shares-tales-moon" rel="nofollow">Read more...</a></p></div>
