CSM Orbit Monitor Chart (CDM), Sheet 4 of 4, Apollo Mission 14 – Site Fra Mauro January 31, 1971 Launch Date. Lunar map, second edition, December 7, 1970. 16 x 39 inches. Scale 1:650,000. The lunar surface area featured on this map is identical to the flown map with the only difference being that the flown version was connected into a continuous loop then folded for "accordion-type" viewing capability. This high resolution map shows surface features as small as 1,000 feet and has the ground tracks of orbits 3 and 12 plotted as full length continuous white lines. Large white numbers of "16, 17, 18, 19, 20" are equally spaced to provide panel sequencing numbers when folded accordion style. A legend in the white bottom border area defines the shape of markings for the terminator, initial point, folding ticks, and the Command Module on-board chart limits. The landing ellipses for both the Apollo 12 and 14 sites are clearly marked. Boldly SIGNED and INSCRIBED near his landing site ellipse: "EDGAR MITCHELL, Apollo 14 LMP."
