132:52:41 Conrad: We got to find Sharp Crater first. 132:52:42 Bean: Where is it? 132:52:44 Conrad: I don't know. We should be right here. (Pause) How big is Sharp Crater? 132:52:55 Bean: Looks pretty small. It looks to me to be about 30 meters. 132:53:00 Conrad: Okay. I've got it. It's right here in front of me. 132:53:02 Bean: Okay. Yeah. I see it. That's it. (Long Pause) 132:53:22 Conrad: Okay. Got a rock. (Taking a pan) Five pic-a-tures. (f/)8. This has got to be Sharp Crater right here. We'll drive that double core tube in the... 132:53:40 Bean: All right. Yeah. This has a nice white rim on it. In fact, the rim of this looks pretty much like the area we kicked over on the previous craters. [In this case, the very light color of the regolith may be due, primarily, to the fact that Sharp Crater is very fresh and that the regolith broken up.]132:53:47 Conrad: I'm not sure this is Sharp Crater, but it's ... 132:53:49 Bean: Let's use it anyway, because it's the only one out here. 132:53:55 Conrad: I know. There is nothing out here. Darnedest thing I ever saw. 132:54:01 Gibson: We're estimating a diameter of Sharp Crater, Pete, for about 40 feet (12 meters). 132:54:08 Bean: 40 feet, huh?... 132:54:09 Conrad: Al, this may be it! 132:54:10 Bean: This is it. 132:54:11 Conrad: It's got to be it. [Bean - "You never knew if you really had picked the right one."] |
