Apollo 17 astronaut Harrison Schmitt has some ideas for GM's new lunar vehicle
Fox News
U.S. Astronaut Harrison Schmitt was the last passenger to ride in the Lunar Roving Vehicle on the moon and has some thoughts on what the new one being developed by General Motors and Lockheed Martin needs.
Schmitt was the first scientist-astronaut to fly into space and accompanied mission commander Eugene Cernan to the surface of our extraterrestrial neighbor. They are the last two people to have visited the moon and saw more of it than anyone else, thanks to the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) they brought along with them. The electric car was developed by General Motors and Boeing and the third to make the trip. All three remain where they were left waiting for some future collectors to find them in "ran when parked" condition.More Related News
