Lunar Sample 15090

MissionApollo 15
Lithologysoil
LocationCollected near a large boulder at Station 2
DescriptionSamples 15090 through 15093 and 15095 were collected near a large boulder at Station 2. The regolith is notable for its fine texture. Coherent fragments larger than a centimeter in diameter are scattered, and none larger than 10 cm in diameter occur within the immediate sample locality. The soil can be assumed representative of the mature, well gardened regolith composed of St. George crater ejecta plus whatever exotic components have been admixed since the St. George impact.
