...organizations connected with the project have been laying great emphasis on the fact that it is to be devoted to the development of basic theory rather than to applied problem solving for the Department of Defense. But the language of the actual M. I. T. proposal itself, as distinct from the explanations and clarifications which have been produced for consumption within the Cambridge community, makes it rather obvious that the distinction between basic and applied research in the behavioral sciences is not a terribly meaningful one.

Now, says Geophysicist Gary Latham of Columbia University, investigators think that the patterns may have been caused spuriously by the seismometer itself. Yet, even while it seemed to be working well, says Latham, the seismometer detected only infrequent, relatively small lunar rumbles. He accounts for that odd seismic behavior by speculating that the moon contains a large amount of cold, fragmented material that would diffuse...
