Apollo-era stainless steel Bolt-Top Container (BTC) designed to transport and store moon rocks and lunar material in the Vacuum Laboratory of the Manned Spacecraft Center's Lunar Receiving Laboratory. The BTC, 10.75˝ in height and 4.5˝ in diameter, was the primary storage and transport device used for lunar material. The upper portion bears a set of four bolts and a carrying handle, with the removable top and body etched with matching part numbers: “BXL–005.” In fine condition. An appealing and uncommon Apollo-era artifact related to the program’s groundbreaking geological studies.
