Lunar Sample 14080

MissionApollo 14
Sample Typerock
LocationCollected from middle of trench at Station G 230 m ESE of LM and 50 m E of the Triplet rim crust.
DescriptionSamples 14080 and 14081 were taken from the middle of the trench at Station G 230 m ESE of LM and 50 m E of the Triplet rim crust. The general area from where the sample was taken is characterized by a nearly level terrain sparsely scattered with debris. The size of the debris varies from the limit of resolution up to 60 cm. The area is also characterized by a moderate abundance of subdued 20 to 50 cm craters and were returned in documented bay 21N in ALSRC 1006. Both are light gray in color and very fine grained. The are both polymicts and contain abundant glass. Both are friable being made up of < 1 mm rock/soil fragments bonded by glass. They could be pieces of the sample but in their present state, they cannot be fitted together.
