# NASA data for ALH 77263 Pairing: ALH 76002

This orangish-brown, angular sample is approximately 15.0 x 5.5 x 8.0 cm. All surfaces have regmaglypts, however, the T surface has smaller regmaglypts, ~3 mm in diameter, than the other surfaces that have regmaglypts as much as 2.5 cm in diameter. From field photographs it was determined that the T surface was in contact with the ice at the time of recovery; this surface has a more metallic luster than the other surfaces.
