Question for any moon landing buffs

Recommended Posts

Out of sheer boredom,:$ I actually looked up it's deployment manual. It's folded up like some giant go-bot outside the side of the moon lander.

I knew it was kind of a collapsible vehicle. I mean it's compact for the travel portion, and then after landing, you expand it, like the full size baby strollers. The recent Mars Rover crafts were set up like that too, all antennae and solar panels retracted, etc, until touchdown.

My hometown is Huntsville, AL, which is home to Marshall Space Flight Center and the Space and Rocket Museum. The Saturn V rockets were built there and the engines were also test-fired there as well.

How did they get that big ass moon buggy to the moon? There is no way it would fit in any of the landing craft that I have seen. Conspiracy theorists unite.



It was of a folding design and was transported in a small bay on the decent stage of the Lunar Module.

I was thinking maybe a game of golf. Can you imagine how long that 18 hole course would have to be? :D:D:D
