Astrolink Active

The NASA/USGS Astrolink, located in the Shoemaker Building (Building 6) on the USGS Campus in Flagstaff, Arizona, is a facility of the USGS Astrogeology Science Center. Astrolink houses 3,000 square feet of climate-controlled space with more than 100,000 lunar and planetary maps, a reference library, an ever-growing photo and document archive that chronicles the history and on-going activities of USGS Astrogeology, assorted artifacts (including Grover the Apollo-era astronaut training rover) and a work room for visiting researchers. The facility also contains the physical MRCTR GIS Lab. The Astrolink is central to USGS Astrogeology's planetary cartography and public outreach projects. Astrolink and USGS Astrogeology tours and archival research assistance are available; please see contact information if you wish to request a tour or assistance, or have any questions about the facility!
