 Surveyor
Once the early Surveyors had demonstrated an ability to make successful midcourse corrections and soft-landings (proving, in the process that the lunar surface was not covered in a thick layer of dust, as some scientists had feared), the remaining Surveyors were used to evaluate potential Apollo landing sites.
Surveyor 3 was the first of the series to carry a surface-sampling device with which the spacecraft excavated four trenches up to 18 cm deep.

Both the Surveyor and RIPE monitoring projects rely on a dedicated PC running Unix to be placed at each monitoring site.
The frequency histograms for the RIPE and Surveyor Jan-4 data set is shown to the right together with relevant values for the median, average, standard deviation (Stdev), inter quartile range (IQR) and the number of samples.
The lack of a strong auto correlation value for the delays measured by RIPE and Surveyor for these data sets is also probably due to the lack of noticeable structure in the data.

The Surveyor program was planned to explore the lunar surface by soft-landing a spacecraft on the moon and conducting a variety of experiments.
NASA planned several possible follow-on programs, including a Surveyor orbital vehicle and a surface rover, but delays in the program caused by booster development failures and the success of the Lunar Orbiter program eventually caused these plans to be shelved.
This subseries consists of documentation on the planned successor to Surveyor, variously termed "Advanced Surveyor," "Surveyor Block II," or "Surveyor Follow-On." Materials are arranged chronologically by study; parallel competing studies are shown with the contractor's name appended to the study name for clarity.
