Summary

Description
English: This is an approximate reconstruction of Figure 4-13 of the Apollo 16 Preliminary Science Report (NASA SP-315), which has the following caption:
Stone Mountain, approximately 5 km in the distance, forms the skyline behind the LRV in this view from the ALSEP site. The white object in the foreground is part of the heat-flow experiment (HFE); the universal handling tool, which is used to level the package, sticks up from the top of the package. The heat-flow probe in the bore stem at the right margin of the photograph is connected by cable to the HFE electronics package. The golden tape in the immediate foreground connects the HFE to the ALSEP central station. To the left rear of the electronics package is the lunar-surface drill; the drill rack with core and bore stems is just behind the electronics package. In the distance to the right rear of the drill rack is the treadle and core stem extractor. The horizontal splash of white above the extractor is South Ray Crater, approximately 6 km in the distance.
Mosaic of AS16-113-18366, 18367, and 18368.
