Apollo Lunar Surface Tools (Rocket City Legacy)

A number of lunar surface tools were once displayed in the "old" museum, in the former Rocket City Legacy exhibit; these are now on display, joined by other related tools, in the Davidson Center.

I initially photographed these tools in October 2002, and by the time of my June 2003 visit, they had been rearranged slightly. It's unclear whether this was intentional or whether some unruly visitor dislodged the tools from their display.

Many of these tools are documented in the Catalog of Apollo Lunar Surface Geological Sampling Tools and Containers.
