Lunar Seismic Station Reports Footsteps From Moon Walk
Seismic data from the first lunar station began Monday showing traces of the astronauts' footsteps. Lick Observatory, Haleakala, and McDonald Observatory aimed laser beams to the moon to measure earth moon distance with unprecedented accuracy. The mission reported no dust eruptions or cabin fires and noted the monument left by the astronauts may endure for centuries. The Apollo LM ascent stage liftoff occurred without major data transmission issues, while Luna 15's impact near Sea of Crises was not detected by the seismic system.
