The thermal conductivity of the Apollo 14 fines, sample 14163,133, was measured under vacuum conditions as a function of temperature. Measurements were made for densities of 1100 and 1300 kg/cu m. A least-squares curve of the form k = A + B(T-cubed) is fitted to each data set in accordance with elementary theory. Comparisons are made with previously published data for terrestrial basalt and Apollo 11 and 12 samples.
