urn:nasa:pds:a17lsg_raw_arcsav:data 1.0 1.7.0.0 Product_Collection Nakamura, Y.; Nagihara, S. Williams, D.R.; McLaughlin, S.A. 2018 This collection contains fixed-width ASCII files of daily raw cleaned science measurements acquired by the Lunar Surface Gravimeter (LSG) at the Apollo 17 landing site for the time span of 02 April through 30 June 1975. These data were extracted from NASA's original Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) archive tapes, also known as ARCSAV tapes, that recorded 24-hour, time-edited, and rearranged raw binary data transmitted from the Moon. The extracted binary data were corrected for obvious tape read errors then transformed to ASCII format for this archive. This collection also includes ASCII files of LSG-related command verification and raw analog housekeeping data extracted from the ARCSAV binary files. 2018-01-04 1.0 Creation. 1975-04-01T23:59:59.429Z 1975-06-30T23:59:59.905Z Science Raw Seismic, tidal, and free-mode measurements taken on the surface of the Moon by the Apollo 17 Lunar Surface Gravimeter during the time span of 02 April through 30 June 1975 to determine gravitational acceleration and its temporal variations, vertical components of lunar natural seismicity, deformation due to tidal force, and free oscillations of the Moon induced by gravitational waves from cosmic sources (null result).

This document provides the information needed by programmers to develop the software for retrieving raw binary experiment data from the original NASA ALSEP ARCSAV tapes for Apollo 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. Section 1.5.1.6 describes the raw binary LSG data as formatted on the ARCSAV tapes. Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report, NASA SP-330, NASA, Washington, D.C., 1973. Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package Systems Handbook: Apollo 17, ALSEP 5 - Array E / Document Change 1, Unnumbered, NASA Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas, 8 August 1972, updated 6 October 1972. Provides detailed operational information about the Apollo 17 ALSEP package including the subsystems for structural/thermal control, electrical power, command, and telemetry, and each ALSEP experiment. Section 5 describes all command verification codes, and their functions, used for the ALSEP 5 station and its experiments. Section 6 lists LSG science and housekeeping measurements and their operating ranges. Section 10 describes the operational aspects of LSG. This handbook was intended for specialized use by Experiment Flight Controllers in real-time and near-real-time operations of ALSEP 5.
