Description

Apollo 14 Hasselblad image from film magazine 68/MM - EVA-2.
Part of this photograph is Figure 3-43 of the Apollo 14 Preliminary Science Report (SP-272), which has the following caption:

Sample 14306, showing approximate lunar orientation reconstructed in the LRL using oblique lighting.

The text of the Report states:

Sample 14306. Sample 14306 was collected at station G, 70 m east of the moderately subdued North Triplet Crater. The surface in the immediate vicinity of sample 14306 is very gently undulating with subdued craters ranging from a few centimeters to 2 m in diameter. Other rocks or clods ranging from the limit of resolution of the photographs to 10 cm in the longest dimension are common but not abundant. One rock approximately 60 cm in the longest dimension lies about 50 cm south of sample 14306. The rock has a poorly developed fillet approximately 0.5 cm high against the two visible sides. The larger rock just south of rock 14306 has a well-developed fillet 2 to 3 cm high and appears to have a small amount of fine-grained material contained in a fracture on the east side; all visible surfaces of rock 14306 appear to be free of fine-grained loose material. The orientation of rock 14306 on the lunar surface is shown in figures 3-43 and 3-44. The rock is notable because it has a glass-filled 2-mm-wide fracture that cuts cleanly across one side (fig. 3-45).
