Moon Rock

The museum features a moon rock from the Apollo 12 mission.

NASA's Lunar Sample Public Displays page has a "Complete List of Lunar Sample Displays" PDF which lists this sample as 12065,15, a fragment of lunar sample 12065 [direct link to 134 megabyte PDF].

The Lunar and Planetary Institute's atlas entry for 12065 [direct link to 0.7 meg PDF] contains additional information on 12065. This PDF has a number of photos and diagrams of the ,15 fragment of 12065.

The LPI also has a page with photos of the original 12065 sample, but unfortunately has no photos of 12065,15.
