Yup, GM designed and engineered the mobility systems for the original Apollo program LRV 50 years ago. GM partnered with Boeing to develop and manufacture that product.
That's really cool! I wonder how far you can go on the moon vs. Earth - I assume a lot more energy has to go to keeping the batteries warm, but I assume that is more than offset by the weak lunar gravity and no wind resistance.
And just how far should you even go? I hear the roads on the moon have a bad pothole problem. You might even call them craters.
A lot could go wrong. And the wait time for AAA is gonna be huge. So the travel distance should be no greater than the distance that you can walk back.
At what point do we get our 💩 together and really go back considering Nasa seems to be in snooze mode and others are taking these kinds of thing up as far as I can tell?
