    Earth observations and photography experiment MA-136 (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: The primary objectives of the earth observations and photography experiment of the Apollo Soyuz Test Project were to photograph various terrestrial structures and to use the capabilities of man as a trained observer in visually studying earth features and phenomena. Man's special capabilities include the sensitivity of the eye to subtle color variations and the speed with which the eye/brain system can interpret what is seen and select targets for photography. Real time astronaut observations constitute a useful complement to orbital photographs and greatly aid in their interpretation. Targets for mapping and hand held photography were selected on the basis of their value to specialists in the earth sciences including geology, oceanography, desert study, hydrology, meteorology, and environmental science.

    Pitted and fluted rocks in the Western Desert of Egypt - Viking comparisons (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The Western Desert of Egypt is one of the most arid regions on earth and is probably the closest terrestrial analog to the surface of Mars. An expedition to the area in 1978 revealed an abundance of quartzite and basalt rocks that have been pitted and fluted by wind erosion and deflation of the desert surface. These pitted rocks are internally homogeneous, show no internal holes or vesicles, and are considered an important but neglected type of ventifact. They bear a striking resemblance to the pitted and fluted rocks seen by the Viking Landers, rocks that have generally been interpreted as vesicular basalts only slightly modified by wind erosion. Wind tunnel studies of the air flow over and around nonstreamlined hand specimens from the Western Desert show that windward abrasion coupled with negative flow, secondary flow, and vorticity in a unidirectional wind can explain the complex arrays of pits and flutes. These field and laboratory observations suggest that the pitted rocks at the Viking Lander sites are also ventifacts, and thus the Martian surface may be far more wind eroded than previously thought.

    Scientific exploration of the moon (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The paper reviews efforts undertaken to explore the moon and the results obtained, noting that such efforts have involved a successful interdisciplinary approach to solving a number of scientific problems. Attention is given to the interactions of astronomers, cartographers, geologists, geochemists, geophysicists, physicists, mathematicians and engineers. Earth based remote sensing and unmanned spacecraft such as the Ranger and Surveyor programs are discussed. Emphasis is given to the manned Apollo missions and the results obtained. Finally, the information gathered by these missions is reviewed with regards to how it has increased understanding of the moon, and future exploration is considered.

    Topography of sinuous rilles in the Harbinger Mountains region of the moon (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Five sinuous rilles in mare basalts in the Harbinger Mountains region of the moon are described. Rille length ranges from 12 to 79 km, width from 0.8 to 4.8 km, and depth from 100 to 300 m. The rilles appear to become shallower to the north, while the southern ends are characterized by circular-to-elongate depressions that occur on a 30-km-in-diameter dome of probable volcanic origin. Longitudinal profiles show that the rille floors have a northward slope of less than one deg, consistent with the general slope of the surrounding mare surface. Structural studies indicate that slope, rather than the regional structural pattern, is the dominant factor controlling rill direction. Topographic data support the theory that the rilles were formed as lave channels or tubes.

    Earth observations and photography experiment: Summary of significant results (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Observation and photographic data from the Apollo Soyuz Test Project are analyzed. The discussion is structured according to the fields of investigation including: geology, desert studies, oceanography, hydrology, and meteorology. The data were obtained by: (1) visual observations of selected Earth features, (2) hand-held camera photography to document observations, and (3) stereo mapping photography of areas of significant scientific interest.

    Distribution, morphology, and origin of ridges and arches in Mare Serenitatis (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Lunar mare ridges and arches in Mare Serenitatis were mapped to understand better their mode of formation. Maps of these features indicate that several pre-mare impacts in the Serenitatis area may be responsible for the localization of the circular ridge systems and that the subsurface, pre-mare topography is more complex than previously recognized. Apollo Lunar Sounder cross sections of ridge systems in southern Serenitatis indicate 50 to 100 m of local relief on these features. Small-scale features of ridges, such as medial lineations and lobate margins, do not conclusively define the origin of the ridges. However, estimates of crustal shortening from Lunar Sounder data and the coincidence of the major ridge system with the Serenitatis mascon suggest that ridges and arches were formed by gravitational readjustments of the mare fill along four probable impact structures and along a north-trending fracture pattern.

    Smythii basin topography and comparisons with Orientale (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The Smythii basin has the most extensive topographic coverage of any lunar multi-ringed basin. Topographic data are used to study the morphology and morphometry of Smythii and to make comparisons with similar basins. The depth of the basin is shown to be over 8 km, which is comparable to that of Orientale. The inner ring reaches heights of 3.4 km, while the intermediate ring exhibits little relief. Lowest points in the basin are related to mare ridges. Basin volume is estimated to be 21 million cubic kilometers. Evidence suggests that significant differences in substrate characteristics may have existed for the Smythii and Orientale impacts.

    Photogeological, geophysical, and geochemical data on the east side of the moon (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Correlations between Apollo orbital data and geologic data for eight map provinces are reported for a region centered on the east limb of the moon (50 deg N to 50 deg S and 50 deg E to 140 deg E). The appearance of the provinces is described, and the basins in or near the region are assigned relative ages. The western (nearside) part of the region averages about 3 km lower in elevation than the eastern (farside) part, according to laser altimeter measurements which are used to make geologic cross sections. Gravity data correlate with most geologic provinces and the surface profiles made by the laser altimeter and lunar sounder. The distribution of concentration ratios of Al/Si and Mg/Si as well as the distribution of relatively low natural radioactivity are considered.
