One of these booms carried a penetrometer, designed to measure the forces required to penetrate the lunar regolith the penetrating force being supplied by a minute explosive charge.

The spacecraft utilized a camera system, an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, a screw drill and surface sampler, a dynamic penetrometer, and a seismometer to conduct investigations on the surface.

The Penguin'Dictonary of Civil Engineering', defines a rod penetrometer is a cone shaped instrument which is jetted into the ground to the required level and then forced in at a measured pressure.
15.
The spacecraft was equipped with a mechanical soil-measuring penetrometer, a dynamograph, and a radiation densitometer for obtaining data on the mechanical and physical properties and the cosmic ray reflectivity of the lunar surface.

The "'Fall cone test "', also called the "'cone penetrometer test "'is an alternate to the Casagrande method for measuring the repeatable and less variable with different operators.
17.
British horse racing courses have been required, since 2009, to report the readings obtained using a penetrometer designed by Cranfield University and TurfTrax, known as the "'GoingStick "', on each day of a race meeting.
18.
A very early ultra-miniature 1 cm?subtraction penetrometer was developed and used on a US mobile ballistic missile launch system ( MGM-134 Midgetman ) soil / structure design program in 1984 at the Earth Technology Corporation of Long Beach, California.

Twenty-five minutes after departing station nine, they arrived at the final stop of the day, halfway between the ALSEP site and the LM . There, they dug a double core and conducted several penetrometer tests along a line stretching east of the ALSEP . At the request of Young and Duke, the moonwalk was extended by ten minutes.
