Night Launching; Apollo 17, 1973. The explosive launch of Apollo 17 is portrayed as a colorful mass of red and orange lines that spread out in a triangular shape. Two white vertical lines in the center seem to be trailing from the rocket. The background is dark brown, and the sky is accented with spots of white and blue. The dark forms at the bottom of the scene suggest a crowd of people watching the launch.
