This must have been the most awesome feeling ever!!!!!
To be on a different world (even though it the moon , yes…) and drive around like it’s just another day at the office!
How has is taken this world so long to get back there already?!?!?
This is one of the coolest things that humans have ever done, and hard to say what compares
Apollo 15 might be my favorite. I’m biased towards 17 because they actually finally sent a real geologist, but in terms of location, 15 was the Apollo GOAT.
There’s a higher resolution, not cropped version available at [Wikimedia](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d4/Apollo_15_Rover%2C_Irwin.jpg).
Fascinating to see that high gain antenna pointed straight up.
Logically, I know the Earth should be high in their sky – it just feels like a reminder that home is a long way away.
You can’t park there, mate.
Just to think we could have a permanent moon base right now if not for the greedy and warlike nature of humanity.
Can anyone see this vehicle on the moon now??? Or are just making up stuff now???
Fantastic photo. I was poking around one the [LROC quick map website](https://quickmap.lroc.im-ldi.com/?camera=1039729.1989%2C-1199508.9335%2C727083.3496%2C-0.5955%2C0.687%2C-0.4164%2C-0.4412%2C0.1535%2C0.8842%2C60&stack=3314&freeCameraZ=true&showShadows=true&proj=22&defs=N4IgzGCMAsIFygPYAcCGBjAlgFwJ70gF9Cg&features=-25.893878%2C13.37853%40%40%7B%22id%22%3A%22c_zZO%22%7D) just yesterday and it’s possible to zoom in enough to actually see the rovers tracks!
Next Forza gonna be lit yo!
I just realised that it’s a first moon photo (from surface) that doesn’t have a „flat“ environment and it has a hill. Or was it in a crater?
