HADLEY RILLE

To commemorate his contributions to science and exploration Hadley Rille, a steep-walled valley that winds 100km across the surface of the moon, was named in his honor on the lunar surface. The rille was formed by ancient lava flows early in the Moon's history and is believed to be one of the most geologically significant lunar regions. In July 1971, American astronauts gazed down into the unexplored rille for the first time. Hadley's passion for exploration and adventure laid the foundation for exploring the far reaches of Earth and beyond. This same passion propels Hadley Rille today. #TimelessAviatorSpirit...
