Schmitt, glided to a safe splashdown at 2:25 p.m. EST on Dec. 19, 1972, 648 kilometers (350 nautical miles) southeast of American Samoa." " S72-56147 (19 Dec. 1972) --- A water-level view of the Apollo 17 Command Module (CM) floating in the Pacific Ocean following splashdown and prior to recovery. The prime recovery ship, USS Ticonderoga, is in the background. When this picture was taken, the three-man crew of astronauts Eugene A. Cernan, Ronald E. Evans and Harrison H. Schmitt, had already been picked up by helicopter and flown to the deck of the recovery ship. The spacecraft was later hoisted aboard USS Ticonderoga. A #USNavy UDT swimmer stands on the flotation collar. Apollo 17 splashdown occurred at 1:24:59 p.m. (CST), Dec. 19, 1972, about 350 nautical miles southeast of Samoa."

LoooSeR Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 A 16-inch shell in the yard of an apartment house in the town of Indian Head, Maryland; 1916. The projectile flew into the town from test range of the naval artillery (shell ricocheted during test firings). This ricochet did not hurt people, but on its way this round demolished several structures. Jeeps_Guns_Tanks and Sturgeon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
