Lunar Utility Vehicle


The Apollo astronauts landed on the moon standing up in their space suits. They were not dependent on the thin skin of the Lunar Excursion Module for life support. The Lunar Utility Vehicle not only employs this approach but improves performance by eliminating the crew cab. In a space suit called the Command Control Pressure Suit, astronauts have excellent visibility while being physically and electronically connected to the vehicle.
