The Astrogeology Science Center was founded in the 1963 to support the Apollo program. We provided scientific expertise, created maps of the Moon, trained the astronauts in field geology, and tested equipment in the rugged geology of Northern Arizona. On this page, you can learn more about the origins and history of Astrogeology, and the people who made it happen.
