The enhanced activity of 60Fe found in several lunar samples is a confirmation of the deposition of supernova debris in the solar system. The concentrations of 53Mn and 60Fe were determined in samples originating from three different Apollo missions, by means of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS).

A local interstellar fluence of 60Fe between 2x107-4x108 at/cm2 is consistent with the findings in a ferromanganese crust from the Pacific Ocean reported by Knie et al [PRL 93, 171103, 2004]. In this talk the results of this work will be summarized, with emphasis on the possible background sources and details on how these were estimated.
