"How do you say goodbye to your closest friend? A man that you have shared so many moments with on land, sea and air. There's no easy answer. But more than being my friend, Gene Cernan was an important part of American history. Gene, as we all know, was the last many to walk on the moon. When he was a boy growing up in suburban Illinois that was just stuff that was fairy tales."

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Cmdr. Fred Baldwin, Friend of astronaut Gene Cernan:
"To list Gene's accomplishments would take much more time than any of us have here today. He logged over 5,000 hours of flying, 4,800 hours of jet time, 200 carrier landings. The thing that I most remember about him is that he is one of two humans that went to the Moon twice."
