Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package Systems Handbook. ALSEP 4. NASA/MSC: August 1, 1970. Over 135 pp. 15 folding diagrams. 11 by 8 inches. Card stock covers, punched. Distribution list stamped and partially in manuscript on the front cover. Due to the cancellation of the final three Apollo lunar landing missions, some components of ALSEP 4 were flown only on Apollo 15 or 16. The central station sections covers the structural, thermal control, electrical power, command and telemetry subsystems. Experiments described are the Passive Seismic Experiment (PSE), Active Seismic Experiment (ASE), Suprathermal Ion Detector Experiment (SIDE), Cold Cathode Gage Experiment (CCGE), Charged Particle Experiment (CPE), Laser Ranging Retro-Reflector (LRRR), and the Lunar Portable Magnetometer (LPM). Prioritization of experiments due to lunar mission reductions had the SIDE, CCGE, LRRR deployed on Apollo 15 and the ASE and LPM used only on Apollo 16.
