Preliminary geologic investigation of the landing site: Appendix A: lunar surface orientations of Apollo 17 rock samples Preliminary geologic investigation of the landing site: Appendix A: lunar surface orientations of Apollo 17 rock samples
The lunar surface orientations of some of the Apollo 17 rock samples at the time of their collection (table 6-V) are shown in this appendix (figs. 6-65 to 6-87). These orientations were determined by correlating lunar photographs of samples before collection with shapes and shadow characteristics of the same samples in the LRL under oblique illumination with nearly collimated light. The...

Remote sensing and photogrammetric studies: Appendix to Part C: effect of photogrammetric reading error on slope-frequency distributions Remote sensing and photogrammetric studies: Appendix to Part C: effect of photogrammetric reading error on slope-frequency distributions
Lunar slope-frequency distributions obtained by photogrammetric techniques are compared with results from the bistatic-radar investigations of the Apollo 14, 15, and 16 missions (refs. 33-16, 33-17, and 33-32) and of Explorer 35 (ref. 33-27). Algebraic standard deviations of slope-frequency distributions from photogrammetric data are equivalent to rms slopes of slope-frequency...

Volcanic studies: Part E: Eratosthenian volcanism in Mare Imbrium: source of youngest lava flows Volcanic studies: Part E: Eratosthenian volcanism in Mare Imbrium: source of youngest lava flows
Orbital photographs taken at low-Sun illumination during both the Apollo 15 (ref. 30-14) and Apollo 17 missions have provided excellent data on the lava flows in the southwestern Mare Imbrium. These photographs have been used recently to present a detailed photogeologic evaluation of these flows and their role in mare volcanism of Eratosthenian age in the basin (ref. 30-15). Eruption of...

Interstitial water studies on small core samples, Deep Sea Drilling Project: Leg 10 Interstitial water studies on small core samples, Deep Sea Drilling Project: Leg 10
Leg 10 interstitial water analyses provide new indications of the distribution of rock salt beneath the floor of the Gulf of Mexico, both confirming areas previously indicated to be underlain by salt bodies and extending evidence of salt distribution to seismically featureless areas in the Sigsbee Knolls trend and Isthmian Embayment. The criterion for presence of salt at depth is a...
