NAME Apollo 15 ALSEP ARCSAV Heat Flow Experiment Raw Cleaned ASCII Data Bundle
TYPE Archive
DESCRIPTION This bundle contains fixed-width ASCII files of daily, raw cleaned measurements acquired by the Heat Flow Experiment (HFE) at the Apollo 15 landing site for the time span of 02 April through 30 June 1975. These data were extracted from NASA's original Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) archive tapes, also known as ARCSAV tapes.

PRIMARY RESULT DESCRIPTION Temperature differences and thermal conductivity measurements in the near-surface layers of of the moon by the Apollo 15 Heat Flow Experiment during the time span of 02 April through 30 June 1975. The data were acquired by thermocouples in the two heat flow probes and probe cables. The scientific objective was to determine the rate of heat loss from the lunar interior by temperature and thermal property measurements at and below the surface.
