Summary

[edit]
Description Apollo 16 Hasselblad image from film magazine 108/I - EVA-2. Soil samples 69920 and 69940 were collected from the shade cast by the small boulder. Soil sample 69960 was collected from under the boulder after is was rolled over. 69920 was called a “skim soil”, because it was collected from the top 1 cm. 69940 was collected beneath 69920. Rock samples 69935 (breccia) is from the top of the boulder and 69955 (cataclastic anorthosite) is from the bottom of the boulder. This boulder is thought to be from South Ray crater, because it is perched, without a fillet, on the regolith. Boulder is about 0.5 meter in size.
