Condition: Good.

N.B. An overturned boulder at Station 2 and the magnetometer at the lunar-science station. 'At Station 2, the crew turned a boulder over so that they could obtain samples from beneath it…which might tell just how long the rock had been lying where they found it. Back to the landing site at about four hours and twenty minutes into the EVA, they spent the remainder of the EVA deploying the scientific experiments at the lunar-science station (ALSEP site) located approximately 125 meters northwest of the LM, notably the Lunar Surface magnetometer' (ALSJ: https://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a15/a15.html).
