The gravity at the landing site of the second lunar landing mission has been determined from data telemetered to Earth from the lunar module on the lunar surface. The measurement was used to compute the gravity anomaly and the lunar radius at the landing site. The gravity was predicted for the site by the use of a simple model of the lunar mass distribution. Comparisons between the results from Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 were made of the observed gravity, the predicted gravity, the radius from tracking data, the radius from gravity data and the gravity anomaly.
