The map shows the regional geology of the Oppolzer A region of the moon, where potential Apollo landing sites 3 and 3R are located. Site 3R includes a prominent mare ridge and is of greater scientific interest (Trask, 1969). The Oppolzer A region is in Sinus Medii, near the center of the lunar earthside hemisphere; it is also important because surveyor VI successfully landed near the...
