Watched a programme on Discovery last night which was about moon landings.

Does anyone know exactly how NASA got the Lunar Rover to the moon when it appears to be almost as big as the Lunar Module.

Always intrigued me as I have never seen a photograph of the Rover attached to the Lunar Module.

Just asking in case anyone thinks I am doubting that the yanks ever landed on the moon......







Suggested that once. Big mistake!!!!

Thank you Eric. That's exactly what I wanted to know.

Back in 1971, ITN (who covered the Apollo missions for ITV) had a working replica built for their TV presentations.

I wonder where it ended up?

Here's a shot of a the Apollo 16 astronauts checking the unfurling process at Cape Kennedy (as it was)


I have never seen that before. That looks great. Answered my question.
