Abstract

The Apollo 14 lunar module landed in a region of the lunar highlands that is part of a widespread blanket of ejecta surrounding the mare Imbrium basin. Samples were collected from the regolith developed on a nearly level plain, a ridge 100 meters high, and a blocky ejecta deposit around a young crater. Large boulders in the vicinity of the landing site are coherent fragmental rocks as are some of the returned samples.

摘要

阿波罗 14 号登月舱降落在月球高地的一个区域，该区域是环绕雨海盆地的广泛喷发物覆盖层的一部分。样本取自在近乎平坦的平原、高 100 米的山脊和一个年轻陨石坑周围的块状喷发物沉积物上形成的风化层中采集。着陆点附近的巨石和一些返回的样本一样，都是完整的碎屑岩。
