In 1971 Nasa put a car on the Moon

In 1971, NASA's Apollo 15 mission marked a significant milestone in lunar exploration by deploying a car-like vehicle on the Moon's surface. This vehicle, known as the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) or simply the "Moon buggy," was a four-wheeled electric rover designed to transport astronauts across the lunar landscape. The LRV greatly expanded the range of exploration for astronauts David Scott and James Irwin, allowing them to cover more ground and collect a wider range of scientific data during their mission. This iconic moment in space history demonstrated NASA's commitment to advancing lunar exploration technology and our understanding of the Moon's geology and environment.
