Jim, I am coming back, but unfortunately, cognative disability remains. It is almost like my mental house has been robbed. I become aware that something is missing, and it can be very frustrating at times. Anyway, here are the images that I took of these maps. These maps, though are larger than the photo areas that I took of them. the largest ones with the transparent overlay is about 3.5" x 7". http://www.geocities.com/american_meteorite_survey/Hadley1.jpg http://www.geocities.com/american_meteorite_survey/Hadley2.jpg http://www.geocities.com/american_meteorite_survey/Hadley3.jpg http://www.geocities.com/american_meteorite_survey/Hadley4.jpg Dr. Shoemaker, Dr. Adrian Beardsley (sp) and the other members of the Apollo 15 team, including the Astronaughts were involved with these maps. Some of the notations must have come from them, so I remember. Steve Schoner/AMS __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
