Summary

[edit]
Description

Apollo 14 Hasselblad image from film magazine 68/MM - EVA-2.
This is Figure 3-21 of the Apollo 14 Preliminary Science Report (SP-272), which has the following caption:

Closeup view of fillet on Contact Rock.

The text in the Report states:

Contact Rock (fig. 3-21) at station C1 is unusual in that it has no evident fillet but rather is in a depression with a raised rim. The visible sides of the rock are steep to overhanging, and the height-to-width ratio is 0.7, which is the highest of any of the large boulders studied, further indicating that very little of it is buried. The lower white portion is angular, and the upper darker portion is rounded. No obvious fine material occurs on the upper surfaces. Larger rocks surrounding the base are distinctly filleted and the rounded ones several inches high are largely blanketed by fine soil. Smaller fragments several centimeters across have few fillets.
