Thanks to Mike Smithwick, I have just posted several photos and info
on what I call the "Lost ALSEP experiment". The Cold Cathode Gauge
Experiment (CCGE) was flown only on Apollo 13 (I think - I'm in the
process of verifying this). As such, it was never deployed and was
completely forgotten. You can check it out at:

This instrument was the same as the Cold Cathode Ion Gauge (CCIG),
which was flown on Apollo missions 12, 14, & 15 as a subpackage of the
Superthermal Ion Detector. You can see the CCIG at:
