Eucrite Elephant Moraine (EET) 87520 in crossed polars (background) and a rare earth element pattern of lunar ferroan anorthosite 15415 (inset). These two images highlight two areas of Michael J. Drake's fundamental contributions to planetary science: his career‐long interest in the origin of the HED meteorites and their likely parent body asteroid 4 Vesta, and his contribution to understanding the complementary nature of Eu anomalies in lunar basalts and anorthosites.
