  <dc:title>Letter from Thomas Gold to Dr Paul Gast, Code TN, Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas, 77058  </dc:title>
  <dc:description>Comments on the nonesense in the press about Apollo sites on the Moon and speculation by geological experts and the Apollo astronauts. 'These poor fellows risk their lives and...believe they are doing it to find what the geologists want to see!' Gold believes that there will be no recent volcanic or crystalline rocks found, or shallow bedrock. Chemistry is also against differences between highland and lowland. Apollo 17 should not be influenced by narrow geological views.  Asks if his remaining camera wil be included to understand the surface flow of dust.</dc:description>
