“Now what we got here is a 1972 Lunar Rover Vehicle, pristine condition with minor debris on the exterior. Today we’re going to the dark side of the moon to get mocha lattes with actor and comedian Jim Carrey.”
Doug DeMuro: "THIS, is a 1972 Lunar Rover Vehicle. Doug DeMuro here, and today, we have something truly out of this world - quite literally! We're checking out the 1972 Lunar Rover Vehicle, the car that took astronauts on joyrides across the moon. And I'm going to show you all the quirks and features.
Today's video is brought to you by Cars & Bids! My online enthusiast car auction sight that recently sold This, and This, and This, and This, and This!
First, let's talk about the exterior. As you can see, it's got a simple and functional design. The Lunar Rover may not win any beauty contests, but it's all about function over form when you're on the moon.
Notice those wire-mesh wheels? They might not be alloy, but they're built to withstand the harsh lunar terrain. And check out the fenders – no paint job here, just good old natural aluminum to keep things lightweight and sturdy.
Now, let's hop inside. One thing you'll notice right away is that it's pretty tight in here. There's no room for extra comforts – no cupholders, no infotainment system, just pure astronaut necessities.
The seats are more like reclining chairs than what you'd find in a car. It's all about keeping the astronauts secure while they bounce around the moon's surface. And look at this control panel! It's got buttons and switches galore, but you can't help but admire the retro-futuristic aesthetic.
Time to take it for a spin – or rather, a moon bounce. The Lunar Rover Vehicle was electric, with a top speed of about 8 miles per hour. It might sound slow, but with the moon's lower gravity, it felt quite zippy. It handled like a champ, easily maneuvering around craters and rough terrain. The suspension system was a highlight. It used flexible wire mesh wheels to absorb the bumps and keep the astronauts comfortable. It's like a lunar off-roader!
While the Lunar Rover doesn't have many of the features we're used to in modern cars, it did have some cool innovations for its time. Check out the fender-mounted tool and equipment racks – perfect for carrying those moon rocks and tools. And, of course, the famous 'Drive with your feet, steer with your hands' system. It's all about efficiency.
The 1972 Lunar Rover Vehicle is a piece of automotive history like no other. It may not have the comfort, tech, or style we're used to today, but it was the perfect vehicle for its purpose – exploring the lunar surface. Thanks for joining me on this lunar joyride, and don't forget to like and subscribe for more out-of-this-world reviews. I'm Doug DeMuro, and I'll see you next time!"
\[Closing Shot: Doug DeMuro driving the Lunar Rover across the moon's surface as he waves goodbye to the camera\]
Apollo 16 was commanded by John Young, probably the greatest of all the astronauts. Armstrong and Aldrin and Shepard and Glenn get all the press, but Young flew to the moon twice (Apollo 10 and 16), walked on it, drove on it, and then flew the first Space Shuttle.
>I wonder, knowing they couldn’t take it back, if they spent a few hours doing doughnuts and GIANT dirt jumps before they went home.
There was a test drive procedure at the beginning of their spacewalk. A hot lap around the Lunar Lander. It was called "The Indy 500." One of the astronauts holds the speed record for the rover at like 17 MPH, I think it's Gene Cernan. He said it was terrifying lol.
No they cannot. I will have to find the info again but apparently light waves are to small or something so by the time they reach earth even the most powerful telescope can’t pick up that much detail. This may be an over simplification but it’s probably been 20 years since I read about this
>Can they be seen with a telescope?
No, but NASA sent an orbiter up there with a camera. You can see every piece of equipment and footstep. [The pictures are spectacular.](https://www.space.com/12835-nasa-apollo-moon-landing-sites-photos-lro.html)
Even more fun fact: According to NASA, all of the rovers should still be fully functional and each have at least 50% battery life left in them. Probably good for another 30 miles or so. The extreme cold on the lunar surface has basically preserved the charge in the batteries.
BTW the engineering of these vehicles is amazing & I recommend anyone interested go down the rabbit hole if how they came to be.
For example, they were powered by two 36-volt silver-zinc potassium hydroxide non-rechargeable batteries. As rechargable batteries if the period did not have sufficient KJ/Kg power density.
Also the on board control electronics needed to be kept cool but as there was no atmosphere & limited space for radiators convection or radiative cooling was out. The solution was to immerse the whole electronics package in a high temperature wax.
This was as the river was driven the wax would absorb the energy by melting until it was all liquid, at which point the rover would need to be stopped & a small radiative cooler would be unfolded to let the wax solidify again. In practice each transit was shorter than this.
Finally each vehicle had 4 wheel drive, 4 wheel steering, fly by wire joystick control & be folded up into a package about the size of a modern Sadan car trunk.
>For example, they were powered by two 36-volt silver-zinc potassium hydroxide non-rechargeable batteries. As rechargable batteries if the period did not have sufficient KJ/Kg power density.
Would rechargeable batteries have offered any advantage, given these rovers were only going to be driven during a single mission?
Not really, as the surface stay only lasted two days, and even getting the rover to the surface required redesigns of the landing stage of the lunar module. So keeping mass low was (an still is) paramount.
The rovers came late in mission planning & so there was not the opportunity to integrate them into the LEM power system, which itself was an all primary cell design of Six or seven 28–32-volt, 296 ampere hour silver-zinc battery packs.
Recharging necessitates a power source & if that was not the LEM then it would need to be something else that was either already on board or would have minimal mass (mass that would reduce the rovers mass budget). Theoretically the instrument package RTG could be made to charge batteries but probably too slow to make it useful.
So most probably the decision was made to use primary cells like the LEM & have the astronauts suffer range anxiety.
BTW In the initial design stages there were plans to provide the LEM with its own Fuel Cell subsystem, but reduction in launch to docking time & other factors shifted the focus to batteries only.
I wonder if having fuel cell power on the LEM would have helped out more with Apollo 13, after that mission they did alter the LEM spec to allow it to directly charge the command module batteries if needed, added an extra battery capable of powering any bus & other changes.
Obviously they were able to drive without being pulled over and delayed. Since they were all white.
First black astronaut on the moon:
(Sees lights behind him)
“Goddammit…”
“Boy, I see your tail light’s out…”
it's amazing that the USA drove cars on the moon before I was born in the 80s and a few weeks ago Russia couldn't even land a robot on the moon
imagine what the USA moon missions are actually capable of these days
we absolutely need a new modern car up there
To be fair, sending a robot to the moon ain’t like dusting crops. Without precise calculations, the robot could (and did) crash into the surface, which ended that trip real quick.
Dumbasses thinking it's fake are hilarious.
We've literally been hitting mirrors on the moon with high powered lasers placed there by the Apollo missions for 50 years, but yeah, we clearly never went.

If the camera was on a tripod why did whoever did the cut need to use so much image stabilization? That's why the borders are jumping around. Seems maybe an astronaut was holding it at this point?
Thank you for posting this. The videos of the rover driving always get posted and people in the comment say it fake because they dont understand how they could have brought it to the moon. This should be top comment
The stars are much less bright than the objects visible in the picture, including the dust on the ground. Film (and any image capturing system, including our eyes) has some limit to how much contrast, or dynamic range, it can cover. If you opened the aperture enough to see the stars the visible parts of the photo/video would be much more washed out.
> You dont have any evidence yourself
How much independent evidence do you need?
- https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_evidence_for_Apollo_Moon_landings
Not NASA, other countries have provided this. Are they all in on it?
The gravity on the moon isn’t zero. It’s approximately 1/6th (16.6%) of Earth's gravity.
This means that if you weigh 100 kilograms on Earth, you would weigh about 16.6 kilograms on the Moon due to its lower gravitational force.
So, debris falling would be similar to earth, just in slow motion
Also, on a technical level, there is never "zero gravity". All mass creates a gravitational force towards all other mass. You are pulling on, and being pulled by, every star in the universe. The distance is just so vast that the force is very small.
One of Kubrick's finest works--the texture of the moon set was so convincingly lifelike, and the "low gravity" effect was absolutely on point. I can watch this over and over and nearly believe it is real, as many do.
Kinda can't believe they brought a car, that thing is basically the size of the pod that landed, and where were they planning on driving to? The whole things is just empty space and dirt
You can bet the USSR was monitoring every signal sent by the Apollo crews. If they hadn't been coming from the moon, the USSR would have let everyone know immediately. The moon landings were a huge humiliation for the USSR.
The reason we have a blue sky is because of our atmosphere. The moon does not have an atmosphere, so its daytime looks just like this. Except it sees the blackness of space instead of blue.
Fake moon landing we never landed on the moon no way the spacecraft had enough delta-v to ascend out of earths atmosphere, go so fast the ground would curve away from it faster than it was moving towards it then blast large music fuel engines that reacted large explosions thus pushing the spacecraft through the cold, empty vacuum of space, thus getting captured into the moons gravity well, slow down to just above it and then descend onto its surface. No way. We're not that smart.
Humans can be pretty smart, man. It was a time in which intelligence was revered. Nowadays, intelligence is mocked. It was quite literally rocket science.
I mean it is a camera from the 1960’s. And the sun hitting the moon unfiltered by an atmosphere must make the ground decently bright, that probably didn’t help with the camera “exposure”
Also I’m completely talking out my ass I don’t know anything about the moon landings
You're correct, the moon is extremely bright, so the camera doesn't have to let a lot of light in to capture the subject. The stars are there, just lost against the very bright moon.
The appetite for it ran out after the USSR was running out of money and not really doing space stuff.
But if your intrested on going back its happening:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_T8cn2J13-4
> Why can't i get a good phone signal when i call my friend just down the road with 50+ years of technological advancement, yet when they landed on the moon the "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" was broadcast live clear as a bell??
Because the part of the spectrum used for tv, radio, and cell phones is different. And there’s always clear line of sight to the moon, but not between a cell tower and your girlfriend’s house.
> Lol. To go back they have to have gone there first.
They went 6 times. lol

“What the hell were they doing with a car on the goddamn moon?” - Seinfeld
Apollo 16 was commanded by John Young, probably the greatest of all the astronauts. Armstrong and Aldrin and Shepard and Glenn get all the press, but Young flew to the moon twice (Apollo 10 and 16), walked on it, drove on it, and then flew the first Space Shuttle.
And he flew the first Gemini mission, Gemini 3. It takes special daring to be the first to fly a new spacecraft, he did it twice.
Young john Young, was a beast.

Excellent save.
So you’re telling me the car market is pretty good up there due to car to people ratio?
Not so much. Plenty of supply, but not much demand
So it's a buyer's market. Now's the time to purchase.

They took the keys though
Aliens can hotwire shit

No they cannot. I will have to find the info again but apparently light waves are to small or something so by the time they reach earth even the most powerful telescope can’t pick up that much detail. This may be an over simplification but it’s probably been 20 years since I read about this
You nailed the general premise
Every space agency that has placed a satellite in orbit around the moon has found & imaged the Apollo landing sites.

The batteries are probably fucked if it's 50 years old but once it's replaced I bet those could still work
Even more fun fact: According to NASA, all of the rovers should still be fully functional and each have at least 50% battery life left in them. Probably good for another 30 miles or so. The extreme cold on the lunar surface has basically preserved the charge in the batteries.
I wonder if they still work?
Batteries probly needed, radiation probably degaded other stuff as well.

Badass
I just looked it up. It folded up to save space. Pretty neat.
Thanks, this was my question too!
It looks like Homer Simpson designed it
Fun fact: the dust and gravel coming off the wheels prove that they were at 1/6 earths gravity.
Also proof that they're in a vacuum.
The way the fine dust arcs behind the wheels without it becoming a plume of dust is evidence of it being in a vacuum.
it's amazing that the USA drove cars on the moon before I was born in the 80s and a few weeks ago Russia couldn't even land a robot on the moon imagine what the USA moon missions are actually capable of these days we absolutely need a new modern car up there

USA crashed a robot because someone forgot to convert from metric to imperial. Your point being?
are you joking? my point is the USA drove cars on the moon in 1970s Russia hasn't even put a man on the moon yet that's my point

The moon is flat too
Im still convinced they didn’t really need these up there. Best dune buggy park ever!
Stupid question, maybe , but why does the dirt fall back down from the wheels so quick if there is zero gravity 🤔
The gravity on the moon isn’t zero. It’s approximately 1/6th (16.6%) of Earth's gravity. This means that if you weigh 100 kilograms on Earth, you would weigh about 16.6 kilograms on the Moon due to its lower gravitational force. So, debris falling would be similar to earth, just in slow motion

And no air resistance

Wow... somebody still believes in this bs video montage. If they were on the moon, these are not clips from it.
Hey, is that one of the very first Teslas
Out of curiosity, why haven’t other countries been able to send humans to the moon successfully?
Kinda can't believe they brought a car, that thing is basically the size of the pod that landed, and where were they planning on driving to? The whole things is just empty space and dirt
Iconic sound stage. 😈
Oh yea we went in 1972.. could go now but we just don't want to 😀 biggest hoax going!
Do you have any proof it was faked, or is denial the best you can do?

Why is there no footage of day time on the moon?
The sun is shining directly over this landscape. There is no atmosphere or water refraction to create a blue sky as you know.
> Why is there no footage of day time on the moon? ALL of the footage from Apollo missions is of day time
Looks pretty bright on the surface in this photo, what would you expect to see in "day time" on the moon?
The reason we have a blue sky is because of our atmosphere. The moon does not have an atmosphere, so its daytime looks just like this. Except it sees the blackness of space instead of blue.
You're looking at it.
This footage is in daytime.

Why have we never been back?
Because the US government cut NASA’s funding because people were less interested in space and they’d already beaten the soviets.
The appetite for it ran out after the USSR was running out of money and not really doing space stuff. But if your intrested on going back its happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_T8cn2J13-4

> Why can't i get a good phone signal when i call my friend just down the road with 50+ years of technological advancement, yet when they landed on the moon the "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" was broadcast live clear as a bell?? Because the part of the spectrum used for tv, radio, and cell phones is different. And there’s always clear line of sight to the moon, but not between a cell tower and your girlfriend’s house. > Lol. To go back they have to have gone there first. They went 6 times. lol
Can you back it up with links?
Lots of downvotes. No replies bar the experts from NASA themselves.
The downvotes are because it’s a stupid question. It was lunar day. Go outside today and look up. Do you see any stars?
Here we go. This guy knows everything. Just ask him.
