Abstract

Because complex data that are presented orally and extemporaneously are far easier to study from a written record than from the oral description alone, during the Apollo 11 mission the Lunar Geology Experiment (LGE) team prepared a transcript of all communication between the LM and the Capcom during descent and lunar stay until the end of EVA. This transcript was a basis for study of the geologic data presented during that time.
