Cause of secondary magnetization in lunar samples, part CThe unstable component of the magnetization found in lunar samples was investigated by returning a demagnetized tracer igneous rock sample from Apollo 12 to the moon on Apollo 16. After the return of the sample, the soft component was similar to the original soft component of the first trip. It is concluded that the soft component is an artifact of the trip.
