"It's Apollo 15, never been on a ride like this before" is a famous quote from astronaut David Scott during NASA's Apollo 15 mission to the Moon in 1971. He said this as the lunar module "Falcon" separated from the command module "Endeavour" and descended toward the lunar surface. This mission was the fourth crewed mission to land on the Moon and marked the first time astronauts used the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV), a small car-like vehicle, to explore the lunar surface. The phrase captures the excitement and novelty of exploring the Moon in a new way, using the LRV to traverse the lunar landscape.
