Title: Photograph of Apollo 17 Lunar Roving Vehicle traverses
Description:
A vertical view of the Apollo 17 Taurus-Littrow landing site with an
overlay  to illustrate the three planned Apollo 17 traverses using the
Lunar Roving  Vehicle. The EVA-1 traverse has a single station (1); the
EVA-2 traverse has  four stations (2,3,4&5); and the EVA-3 traverse has
five stations  (6,7,8,9&10). Stations 10-A and 10-B are alternate locations
for Station 10.  In addition to the major stations mentioned above, brief
stops are planned  for sampling between stations using the LRV sampler tool
(note diamond-shaped  figures), and for deploying explosive charges
associated with the Lunar  Seismic Profiling Experiment (note black
x-marks).
