Abstract
An instrumentation package is described that will perform five types of nuclear measurements in support of the Apollo Extensions System (AES) manned mission. The measurements will be used for the geochemical and geophysical exploration of the lunar surface and subsurface. They consist of 1) natural gamma ray, 2) spectral gamma ray, 3) gamma-gamma, 4) neutron-gamma and 5)neutron-neutron measurements.
