      <description>Video with audio taken by the astronauts as they used the    
        LSRP to perform index runs 2 and 3 of the Apollo 15 Soil Mechanics        
        experiment.  Both index runs are captured on camera.  The video begins    
        at a mission elapsed time of about 148:20:33 which corresponds to         
        approximately 01 August 1971 UT.  For index run 2, the LSRP with a        
        0.5-square-inch cone is used adjacent to the north end of the trench.     
        For index run 3, the penetrometer with a 0.5-square-inch cone is used     
        in the rover tracks directly behind the vehicle.  The associated data     
        tables are DATA/A15_SMSS_71_M016935_011.TAB and                           
        DATA/A15_SMSS_71_M016935_012.TAB.                                         
        
        This movie is an MPEG-4 conversion of a Real Media (RM) file publicly 
        available in the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal (ALSJ) at

        Please note the times listed for this video are approximate elapsed       
        times from the mission transcripts at the start of the video and          
        converted to UT.
      
        For the PDS4 migration, the original RM (Real Media) files were 
        converted using the “Production Max” preset in HandBrake 
        (https://handbrake.fr/) to make them compliant with PDS4 standards.</description>
