Of course the primary objective is docu - docu- mented samples of the blocks; and then, also, we'd like to get some of the rake and soil sample out in the surface, namely, the rim crater there, if that's available. And one of the things, of course, we're looking for is the variety of rocks here, if there's more than just the one boulder. You can sample the boulder for a while, but we would be interested in seeing if there is more than just the single type of rock. Probably, also, samples from both sides - both halves of the rock. What we said this morning in terms of - - 20 minutes - you spend here and how much you go on to station 7 and spend. If you feel that it's worthwhile, we could spend essentially all that hour and 20 minutes at this station. But if we did that, we'd like to get a fair variety of blocks, if they're available. sampled
CDR-EVA: Well, so does that big one - -
LMP-EVA: It's grayer.
CDR-EVA: That's why I've been photographing it.
LMP-EVA: What it is, I think - it's a big blue-gray rock - itself is crystalline, I believe. The inclusions are much more sharply defined, and it's nonvesicular; and it's included, or at least it's in contact with the very vesicular anorthositic gabbro - *** there. See that?
CDR-EVA: Yes, the whole big one. I just ...

LMP-EVA: Yes, it's in pretty good shape. We're working on it still.

LMP-EVA: But the whole thing seems to be pretty well altered, or metamorphosed - compared to the major rock we sampled - to the other blue-gray rock. This bag is terrible. I can't - it won't latch.

CDR-EVA: Bob, we don't move around from here too much. I tell you, these slopes are something else.
CC: Yes. We agree with that, from what we see on the television. So use your Judgment, and get them where it's the best place.

CDR-EVA: Oh, yes, it is because I Just broke into it.
CDR-EVA: I'm looking - -
CC: And we'd like to have you guys moving again in 5 minutes to get to station 8 on time.
LMP-EVA: Looks like - although the blue-grsy up on the hill looked like a fragment breccia, if this is still related, then it's - been some partial melting at some time.
CDR-EVA: There's a presePved contact between the dike and the - -
LMP-EVA: That's what I wanted.
CDR-EVA: - - white material.
CDR-EVA: Why don't we get this big piece of dike now? IMP-EVA See if you can get - Whoa! Don't hit it again. There, you've still got some - still got some contact there.
CDR-EVA: That'11 do it.
CDR-EVA: Get nIy bag. I'm taking some closeups. the dikes are coming from. *** your hammer handy still? want anorthositie gabbro. Here's the *** won't come off, this one will.

CDR-EVA: *** in there, and you take the - -
LMP-EVA: I got to get the scoop.
CDR-EVA: - - scoop, and I'11 get the hammer. Then make sure your bag is closed.
LMP-EVA: Yes, I've got to check yours, too. Let me get uphill from you, though.
CDR-EVA: Wait a minute. *** me the hammer. Can you get it now?
LMP-EVA: *** one of the worst bags we've had - *** stay down. Probably - If we get time somewhere, we ought to change that out.

LMP-EVA: It's okay. It'11 hold for a while. Okay.

LMP-EVA: Oh, I'11 get it.
LMP-EVA: *** grip it? *** Got the gate open. I'm going to get your bag.
CDR-EVA: Hey! Did you see the way I handled the hammer, huh?
CDR-EVA: Takes you awhile to get accustomed to things. *** a little sluggish, too, Jack. Everything's so full of dust. Nothing wants to move anymore. I think. I, Bob?

CDR-EVA: That's too much. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Let me - -
LMP-EVA: *** got it. No? *** play with it, and I'11 see if I can change a mag.
CDR-EVA: Well, dadgummit! That latch is -
LMP-EVA: ...?
CDR-EVA: I'11 lock it. I'11 Just push that latch - that latch is just sticking, that's all. It's Just dust, I guess. I don't know what you do about those problems.
LMP-EVA: Okay. What magazine did you want, Bob?
CDR-EVA: *** latched.
CC: Magazine Mike, as in Mary. Gene, you might spend your time taking a standard 74-foot pan while Jack is changing his mag, if you got a chance there.

LMP-EVA: Okay. Mag's changed.
LMP-EVA: Bob, those two bags with the goodies in them will have enough soil to be representative of the area we sampled, too; I think.
CC: Okay; copy that. And did you guys get your bags fixed up there, Jack? We were concerned about your SCB for a while. left. No, it didn't - It didn't come off, I don't think - unless it - the bottom's off, but the bottom is not going to stay up. And it's not - You're not going to lose it. The tops are so tight you'11 - Your bottom's loose, but that - That's because your harness shrunk a little bit. only one of Jack's hooks was hooked. On the top.
CDR-EVA: Yes. They're both on, and they're both tight. And I got the bottom hooked again, too. you see it? I know it's clean. Let's forget it.
CC: And, 17, as you get around to the front there, Gene, would you dust the LCRU; we don't think you did that here and the top of the TV camera. And, Jack, would you take a peek at the SEP temperature for us? at the station.
CDR-EVA: Jack, this is tied down everywhere. You're Just going to have to watch it.
LMP-EVA: I will. *** in. Hey, we seem to do an awful lot of down-Sun driving for - or up-Sun driving for all (Laughter) the planning we did.
CC: *** we come home from station 8, then we'11 take care of it.
CC: And, Gene, as you get started there, we'd like a couple of Rover battery temperatures; at least one. We know what theother one says. And, Jack, we might get a frame count from you - Oh, excuse me, we already got that; thank you, because it's changed.
CDR-EVA: Okay. We're rolling, and I'd like the range and
CC: Okay. We want a heading of around i - we want a heading of around 125, and there's going to be a short - some - a small turn, I think it's at crater - the SWP Crater at 225 and B.4, there'11 be a slight turn.
CDR-EVA: That's what I'm looking for.
CC: That's a heading of 125 is what you should start out on. mmmam mm
CDR-EVA: I thought we were bypassing - -
CDR-EVA: I thought we were bypassing SWP.
CC: No, we just do that during the mission planning stages.
CDR-EVA: 225 and 3.4. Okay.
LMP-EVA: That's pretty close to nominal.
CDR-EVA: *** got my - Man, I tell you, this little navigation map I've got on my hand - cuff checklist is - is unquestionably the greatest thing that I've ever - done.
LMP-EVA: *** hard to tell where north is on it, though.
LMP-EVA: Okay, Bob. We're pretty close now to - no, really not. We're still about 100 meters, I think, from where the break in slope is - with the plane. And - but we're away from the block population except for scattered - two great big blocks out ahead of us, this side of the SWP Crater. And - but the average population is down to the 1 percent or less, again. That average population really never changed up in here. Just the big blocks were around. I saw some little half-meter to one-third-meter, glass-lined, pit-bottom craters. they big mamoos (laughter). same thing that we sampled. They have the inclu- sions in them, white inclusions. They look like a mixture of gray and the - sort of a tan-gray of the - the gray of the recrystallized breccia, and the tan-gray of the anorthositic gabbro.
CDR-EVA: Yes. Way over there.
LMP-EVA: Yes. Cochise is certainly a shallow crater, although we knew that. It doesn't have any - it only has one place I can see that has any blocks on the inner wall of Cochise. Otherwise, it has a surface much like what we're driving on for walls and for the floor. One place on the south - southeast wall is a concentration of blocks much like we saw in Henry or in Horatio. But the rest of the crater seems to be pretty well mantled. Van Serg is a very blocky rim crater, *** blocks up on the rim.
CDR-EVA: Do you have a lot of static, Jack, or is it Just me?
LMP-EVA: No, I think it's Just you. People are always giving you static. CDR_EVA Bob, if you are still reading me, I'm looking at the Sculptured Hills, and I still have that - that old man wrinkled face appearance, even up close at this Sun angle. And those wrinkles go from, generally, upslope at the west to downslope at the east.
LMP-EVA: *** No, you're right at the edge of Cochise.
CDR-EVA: *** Right here? lA{P-EVA Yes. Aren't you - -
CDR-EVA: No, we're not that close. Uh-uh. Cochise is up at - see that rim where those blocks are? IJqP-EVA No, that's a small crater.
CDR-EVA: Oh, I'11 bet you that's Cochise up there. We've got to go quite a ways yet to get to - This sideslope driving is really a tough - -
CC: *** range and bearing there, guys?

CDR-EVA: Okay. 214/3.4. the mantle are these craters that look, as far as the diameter-to-depth ratio is concerned, like they ought to be fairly young. But there's no blocks on the rim, and they seem to be - have this mantled appearance, just like some of the large craters. it - Let me get over here - It still shows me an albedo change and a surface wrinkle-texture change.
LMP-EVA: And - yes, I think so. I've got it at the same Sun angle more or less, on part of it there.
CDR-EVA: It's sort of a perfectly formed saddle in there.
CC: Yes. Okay. Copy that. You guys may be getting Just a little far north. You may want to head Just a little south to avoid running right into the middle of SWP Crater.
LMP-EVA: Yes. I think we see it now. Is that SWP?
CDR-EVA: Well, I don't know. I don't *** see anything yet. Let's see.
CC: SWP will be at 22 - SWP will be at 225 and 3.4.
CDR-EVA: Yes. That's nV - that's what I'm shooting for, Bob.
CDR-EVA: I'm Just flying a 3.4 mile - -
CDR-EVA: - - or kilometer arc.
CC: Roger. I was going to suggest that.
LMP-EVA: Bob, there's something I haven't mentioned, but if one had time on the next program - -
CDR-EVA: I think that's SWP right there, Jack. It is.
LMP-EVA: - - you can sample secondary craters, and they tend to have blocks either in them or on one rim, sug- gesting that you could tell directions if you put your mind to it. Directions of the - where the secondaries came from. These are small ones.
CDR-EVA: Did we ever get a piece of glass in place?
LMP-EVA: Yes, I did yesterday.
CDR-EVA: Doc_nented in place?
CDR-EVA: Okay. yesterday.
CDR-EVA: Here's BWP, Jack. It's coming right up, and I'11 go along the southern rim. forgetting to take my pictures.
LMP-EVA: There's a crater, that double pit-bottom crater. That's the first one of those I've seen. right over the top of SW-P.
CC: And remember again, station 8 is a very flexible area. You Just get to a place where it looks like it's feasible to sample Sculptured Hills.
CDR-EVA: Let me tell you, this Rover is a machine. I don't know if it saw that hill we're climbing, but I did.
LMP-EVA: How's your - how're you doing?
LMP-EVA: East Massif has outcrops on it. I can see now on the north side. And they also tend to have linear upper terminations. And some of those line up as if there's roughly horizontal structure within the upper one-half of the East Massif.
CC: Okay. Copy that, Jack. Stop thinking and take pi ctures. I/_P-EVA Go by that little dark crater over there. There's a very blocky-rim small crater that's a dark-rim crater instead of a bright rim like we'd seen some around that looked fresh. It partly may be the angle at which we're approaching it.
LMP-EVA: Why don't we get some samples of that material in there.
LMP-EVA: *** driving tOWard the rim and then just - a shallow curve. Okay. Now, curve it.
CDR-EVA: *** spot?
LMP-EVA: Okay. Right. Just keep going, and I'11 stop you. _noa, straight in. Good, good.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob. 226/3.6. There's a - there's a highly fragmental, small crater about 40 - 30 or 40 meters across, right on the southeastern rim of SWP. And at - there's a - Most of the fragments are football size and smaller, and they're very angular. And probably the inside of that rim is - - covered on the inside of the rim with these things. dark compared to - to other fresh craters like this that we've seen.
CDR-EVA: 50 Yankee.
CDR-EVA: See that one? Of course, I don't know where that came down. Doesn't look like it may have come down frc_ the top. IA{P-EVA Certainly aren't many rocks. It's certainly not like the old North and South Massifs. There's one big rock over there that doesn't look like it might be -
CDR-EVA: Well, let's head that way. That's about where the station is, anyway.
LMP-EVA: ... I think we're starting to see blocks. That one unusual is so - so -
CDR-EVA: That's about the station. That's the northernmost station, anyway. There's another one there.
LMP-EVA: Well, this probably is - We can get the other around smaller population it. I'm worried about that one being exotic to the Sculptured Hills.
CDR-EVA: Yes, it doesn't look like it rolled -
LMP-EVA: N o.
CDR-EVA: But I don't see any others, do you?
LMP-EVA: Well, there's some small ones up in there. Off to about the 2 o'clock position. But I think that's all. We're going to have to be satisfied with small ones. *** ones don't get down. There's some big ones way up on the slope.
CDR-EVA: Yes, I see those.
LMP-EVA: Watch it; crater.
CDR-EVA: Okay. We're at
CC: 227/3.9.
CDR-EVA: I think it's worth - There's smaller ones around here, too, Jack. stopping, I'11 move on up over there. that we - - whether we can or not. How's your - what's your pitch indicate? well up the slope.
CDR-EVA: Bob, no parking constraints on the battery ?. Or wherever you like, really. pointing uphill so we can get out. Jack, I'm going to park - - to Just park it - - closer to the - That's level, too, on the rim. It'11 give them a view of the - a good view of the sampling area. I think we can - If we work on those blocks there, we're in pretty good shape. Bob, we're directly downhill, and that is fr_n the highest point that I could see up on this first mass - first Sculptured Hill.
CDR-EVA: Not really, but - Okay - -
CDR-EVA: - -. - 230.
CC: And here, we would like - -
CDR-EVA: - - on the forward and off scale low, and 220 on the right rear.
CC: We copy that. We'd like to get the usual dusting here.
CDR-EVA: Yes. And I'm fairly level.
LMP-EVA: Not really.
CDR-EVA: (Laughter) I'm not, huh?
LMP-EVA: (Laughter) I Just about rolled downhill again.
CDR-EVA: Oh, man. (Laughter) I am pointing uphill, aren't I?
CC: And, 17, we'd like - Battery covers stay closed. But we do want the LCRU, and the TV camera, and the TCU dusted.
CC: And, 17, we'd like the SEP blankets opened and dusted one more time.
CDR-EVA: I think you're a dreamer, Bob, but I'11 do it.
CC: Roger. We keep hoping.
CDR-EVA: *** your thing, Jack. It's going to take me a little while to get this dusted. sub floor gabbro. dirty, but I will not dust them as long as you're happy. any cooler batteries. getting dust in them. I've had pretty good luck with them. They've been pretty clean.
CDR-EVA: Our fender's beginning to fade; and, uh-oh, the clip came off on the inside; that's what's wrong. We'11 have to fix that before we start. The out- side ones hold but the inside one's not.
LMP-EVA: Bob-o, all the blocks bigger than 20 centimeters that I've looked at up here are subfloor gabbro in appearance.
LMP-EVA: I've looked at about five.
CC: Did we get a mark there on the gravimeter, Gene?
CDR-EVA: Thirty seconds to go, Bob.
CC: Roger. I copied it. Just wanted to check.
CDR-EVA: Okay. Jack. You find anything up there?
LMP-EVA: Gene, I'm going to go up and look at this one rock. Why don't you set up and sample any one of these other big ones. They're all the same. Like the one near the Rover. And I'11 go up and try to get this big one down there.
LMP-EVA: It's the only one left to look at, but right now we're dealing with subfloor material, I think.
CDR-EVA: What about some of these little fragments that seem to be sitting more on the surface?
LMP-EVA: Yes, we're supposed to rake here. We'11 get those with the rake.
CDR-EVA: That one up there, by the way, is sitting on the surface. These others are submerged.
CDR-EVA: If you - you won't - You don't have a han_ner, but if you need me, I'11 come up there because I think that may be worthwhile.
LMP-EVA: I'11 roll it down to you. minutes spent in 30 to make up some of the time we at station 6 and 7, a little extra. And we'd also remind you that we'd like a rake soil sample here, too. That may be the only way we try and pick up some stuff other than subfloor if that, indeed, Sculptured has come down from the top of the Hills. chunk
CDR-EVA: I'm not sure I am, but go ahead.
LMP-EVA: Go; roll. *** I would roll on this slope, why don't you?
CDR-EVA: Five-sixths gravity that's missing.
LMP-EVA: Hey, I'11 bet you they would like, if I didn't step on it, sample out of the bottom of that thing.
CDR-EVA: These others all look - You're right, Jack, they look like what we've been sampling. And they're all pretty well mantled except the ones you got up there. There's one more piece I see on the side of that crater that may not be.
LMP-EVA: It may have been thrown in here by an impact. Oh, you're here.
CDR-EVA: *** sample it, and then roll it down.
LMP-EVA: Well, okay. I never would have moved it if I thought you were coming up.
CDR-EVA: Well, I wasn't coming up; but I looked at some of those others, and there's only one more - I it
LMP-EVA: Okay. Well, got documented up in place. Let's - That's not the - I think that's the side that was down. Let me roll it over -
CDR-EVA: Well, let me get a piece of that side since it was underneath. Then we'11 roll it over and get a piece of the other side.
LMP-EVA: Good thinking. Oh, okay; yes. Let's do it again. Except I got dust all over it.
LMP-EVA: The albedo - the down-Sun picture's not going to mean much. Let me get this sample in your bag. I think we ought to change your bag because the stuff's going to start flying out. more in that crater. It may be from that crater, but I don't know,
CC: We copy; 564 from the bottom of the boulder.
CDR-EVA: Sure that's the bottom, huh?
LMP-EVA: Yes, it's got - mixed with local soil. I'm pretty sure. Let's turn it over. I think I'd recognize the top, although it's got dust all over it now.
CDR-EVA: I think I'11 get one more swap off there. I don't want to seal this. Let me get another swap off there. I can get it.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Well, that disappeared. Get it this way.
CDR-EVA: One time. That disappeared, too? That probably went into orbit. L_dP-EVA Yes.
CDR-EVA: Boy, is that pretty inside. Whoo! We haven't seen anything like this. I haven't. Unless you've been holding out on me.
LMP-EVA: No, this is a nice crystalline rock.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I see that one.
LMP-EVA: Where did that one go?
CDR-EVA: That's a good one. I'11 go get it with my tongs. That's a good one. That one I worked too hard to get. Hey, I see how it makes boulder tracks. I just made one - it Just - it Just skipped along, made those little pothole craters as it went.
CC: Copy that. Okay. When you guys get done with that rock, we'd like to get to the rake sample, please. And that's probably Just as well done by the Rover as anyplace else. besides that.
CDR-EVA: Okay, that's good. *** gnomon, and we won't roll it over on the gnomon.
LMP-EVA: Watch it. Oh, yes. That other side is the one that was up. Well, I'm not sure now. *** much dust on it. But let's -
CDR-EVA: It's not going to roll down that hill unless we got it on edge.
LMP-EVA: No. Did it come up to you?
CDR-EVA: Well, look at that glass on it. That's what you said, huh?
LMP-EVA: It's on all sides. It's on all sides.
CC: 17, there's probably not much point in spending a lot of time out here trying to decide which is the top.
CDR-EVA: We 're not.
CC: It's not big enough, anyway, really to worry about the top and bottom samples. They're radiologically significant.
LMP-EVA: Well, let's - If you don't want another sample, then we can go ahead.
CDR-EVA: Well, let me get a piece of this glass.
LMP-EVA: Righto. *** is. Okay. *** to get them. *** here.
CDR-EVA: Okay; a piece of the glass from it, Bob, is 546. With a little of the local soil.
CC: Okay. We copy 546.
CDR-EVA: Okay. We'11 go rake.
CC: And now we're ready for you guys to rake, and I guess they suggest a crater rim, if possible. Probably over there near the Rover. down there, huh?
CDR-EVA: Bob, on my frame count; 85. Can't keep my edges. Little hard to get a good hip rotation. I don't know. I'm looking back at the complex: Cochise and Shakespeare, and I can see the LM. Hey, Bob. One interesting thing up here, you can see the erosional pattern of the talus, the mantle that - I call it a mantle, but the talus that's on the Sculptured Hills, there's little - little boulder tracks of all sizes from all these little clods. And they all, of course, point downhill or nearly downhill. this without the gnomon.
CDR-EVA: Like this. Two-legged hop.
LMP-EVA: *** Yes.
CDR-EVA: And on level ground, I can skip. I don't like that loping thing.
LMP-EVA: Oh, the loping's the only way to go.
CDR-EVA: Well, when I'm on level ground, I can skip. But this two-legged thing is great. *** cover ground like a kangaroo. Oh, okay. You documented already; I was Just going to put this in the field of view, anyway.
LMP-EVA: Yes. Here on the after we can have it there.
CDR-EVA: *** about that? There's not much in here worth - Man, there's Just nothing - This has been totally mantled with talus. Well, it is, because that - that downhill pattern goes right down the slope of this crater, and, actually, it goes upslope of the crater. This may be on a ray somewhere. Because it goes right downhill - this little ... boulder trail pattern goes right up the slope.
LMP-EVA: *** those are later than the crater by a long ways.
CDR-EVA: Did you - did you *** anything over here.
LMP-EVA: No, I haven't done anything - -
CDR-EVA: I'm going to pick up the piece out of that little - -
LMP-EVA: Yes, get this - -
CDR-EVA: - - crater.
LMP-EVA: *** gnomon over there? you're ready for a bag.
CDR-EVA: *** ready? maybe - yes, about 2 meters, and down to 4 or 5 centimeters for these. Pretty good population. to go in? it isn't, but we ought to change it when we get back, anyway. And that one ought to go under your seat. kilogram is in 566. And, a trench. If you fellows think it's feasible, we'd like to be moving in 11 minutes, 11 minutes. And pan we could use a from this lower location also, probably.
CC: And we also remind you of getting a pan at the lower section there.
CDR-EVA: I'11 get the sample here that I got documented now and - -
LMP-EVA: Did you? - Is that - Is that all going to go in th ere ?
CDR-EVA: Yes, it'11 go.
LMP-EVA: Can you twist it?
LMP-EVA: That rock may have been too much. Take that rock out, and - -
CDR-EVA: No, it'11 stay. *** put it in mine, though. Well, let me try. Since we're going to unload your bag, this ma_v be the last *** one. That's the last one for your bag.
LMP-EVA: Did you get anything out of that little crater?
CDR-EVA: No. But I'm going to right now.
CDR-EVA: Why don't you get your after picture over there and go down and get that trench. I'11 come down - want
CDR-EVA: I can - I can bag it - I can do it myself.
