Whoa guys, I just got a wild idea. I’m just putting this out there…
what if it can fold up to fit inside?
WHOA LOOK AT THAT IT CAN FOLD IN HALF TO FIT INSIDE THE LM AND THEN ALL THEY HAVE TO DO WHEN THEY GET TO THE MOON IS PULL THIS THING TO UNFOLD IT AND GET IT OUT AT THE SAME TIME THIS IS SO CLEVER I’M S H O O K
yes we can
THERE WAS A SHOW CALLED MOON MACHINES THAT DID AN ENTIRE ONE HOUR EPISODE ON THE LUNAR ROVER! IT WASN’T SUPPOSED TO EXIST BUT THEN SOMEONE REALIZED THERE WAS A TINY WEDGE SPACED VOID BETWEEN THE LANDING STRUTS THAT COULD FIT A TINY SOMETHING! A PAIR OF FORD EMPLOYEES FIGURED OUT HOW TO ORIGAMI DECEPTICON A TINY CAR INTO THAT SHIT AND USED A GI JOE TOY TO BUILD A MODEL VERSION THAT THEY RC DROVE INTO WERNER VON BRAUN’S OFFICE!
Sorry for the all caps, but the lunar rover is honestly one of the coolest fucking engineering accomplishments of all time and deserves to be recognized as such.
“We’ve got a tiny space, we might be able to fit something extra in on the descent ship.”
“…Hey, wouldn’t it be fucking sweet if they had a moon go-kart that folded up?”
“IT FUCKING WILL BE SWEET BECAUSE IT’S GOING TO HAPPEN NOW”
I always love how badly moon truthers underestimate the reality of the Apollo program.
