President Kennedy calls for a mission to send man to the moon during a joint session of Congress on May 25, 1961. By Richard Stenger. CNN. (CNN) -- Forty years ago on this day, President John F. Kennedy presented a bold challenge before a joint session of Congress: Send a man to the moon by the end of the decade. Some derided the dream as lunacy.
The last humans to go to the moon were Gene Cernan (pictured) and Jack Schmitt on the Apollo 17 mission in December 1972. Since then, in more than 40 years, no astronauts have even left Earth orbit-leading some to suggest that a mission straight for Mars is too big a leap, even for Nasa.
