The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, working with members of the scientific community, has determined that early manned lunar exploration will be oriented primarily to investigations in the geosciences. Exploration by man on the lunar surface will, therefore be geological, geophysical, geochemical, geochemical, and surveying in nature, and will be directed to the physical and chemical characteristics of the lunar crust, and to measurements that will furnish data pertinent to understanding the physics of the Moon. Scientific exploration of the Moon will provide information fundamental to understanding the origin and composition of the Solar System, and engineering data important to the design of specific...
Memo detailing the Apollo 16 field exercises at the Nevada Test Site from 19711026 to 19711028.
This is an examination of the geochemistry of the uranium deposit at the Frenchy Incline, and possible ways the deposit has come into existence.
This is an examination of the creation of the Ries Basin in Bavaria, Germany.
Annotated example of data to consider for geology traverse check list for lunar surface EVAs
This is a paper about the properties of comets and a theory of how they might come about.
Abstract concerning the ray system of the lunar crater Copernicus.
A set of data releases from the Astrogeology Shoemaker collection. This work was funded through an NGGDPP award (2023-0017). They include unpublished works, maps and correspondence.
A field test held in the Hopi Buttes, Arizona, was planned to test geological, geophysical, and analytical operations and instruments that are of potential use in Apollo Extension Systems lunar surface missions. The test was conducted under "shirt-sleeve" conditions, but potentially useful methods of recording and compiling information during lunar exploration were employed. The test showed that by using specially planned procedures, field and analytical information can be evaluated during field operations and compiled at a location that is remote from the field. It also showed that the more information that is analyzed as operations progress, the more effectively can succeeding operations be conducted. Experience...
When the Apollo astronauts land on the Moon, their precise location will not be known. The real-time geologic mapping planned for the first mission could best be done if the exact position of the landing site were determined. The astronauts may have to find their position, with or without assistance from the Earth-based scientific mission center, before leaving the Lunar Module (LM), and the less time this takes, the more time will be available for exploring the lunar surface.
Geology training report for the period of 419710820 to 19711231 detailing photos and samples taken by each participant for each part of the exercise.
Geology training report from 19710820 to 19711231 detailing photos taken and samples collected by each participant for each exercise.
This is a memo concerning a review of a paper for publication entitled "Interplanetary correlation of geologic time", written by Shoemaker, Hackman and Eggleton.
This is a letter from John O'Keefe to Eugene Shoemaker discussing Lunar rays and formulas for computing impact crater ray formation.
This is an examination the late Paleozoic and Early Mesozoic structural history of the Uncompahgre front and the Paradox Basin.
Incorporated into USGS OpenFile Report #1094, "The Geologic Classification of the Meteorites", these materials were written by Donald Elston and contain figures, photos, and charts to help astronauts (who were not trained geologists) be able to identify and articulately describe the geologic observations they made on the lunar surface.
This document updates the training requirements for the Apollo 16 and 17 SIM Bay.
Guide to the Geology of Sudbury Basin, Ontario, Canada for the Apollo 17 flight crews participating in the field training exercises.
This is an discussion penetration of meteorites as opposed to nuclear impact cratering.
