<< This was found by Jack Schmitt on the rim of Shorty crater on EVA 2 beside
 the famous "orange soil" that you all know I love so much. It was described
 at the time by Schmitt as a vesicular gabbro. He removed it from a boulder
 that was so highly eroded he was able to pull it off with his fingers. >>

Thanks, great pics, Stuart. The "fine print" on the display in Hawaii backs
up all the details you just provided:
