The paper describes the aphanitic rock that makes up the bulk of 73215, one of the six Apollo 17 samples classified as light-gray breccias. Emphasis is on studies of the fraction that originated as melt, the extent of clast-melt equilibration, the thermal history of the aggregate, and the genesis of the melt.
