Anyone have information about that?I've been messing around with them, but haven't found a fix yet. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canopus Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 And I still don't understand how they stored the Lunar Rover inside the the apollo lunar module..Mounted on the side of the descent stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle.mk.howard Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Still seems odd to me..but ok.It unfolded as it was stowed on the side of the descent module, like so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCOLE360 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Does it go partially inside the descent tank? That's what I was thinking would be logical, one side has part of the rover inside of it, the other side has all the other surface equipment.

Good_Apollo Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Still seems odd to me..but ok.It folded up pretty nice. Don't worry, I too see the SEV, while functional in design and purpose on location, to be completely ridiculous to be sent as anything but a separate, costly, inefficient cargo launch for what it does. Now if it somehow contained an ascent stage, we could talk. Edited June 10, 2013 by Good_Apollo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerbal01 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I have another small request that probably belongs in the community ISS thread but il post it here, Bobcat can you model the Dextre arm part of the Canada arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daver4470 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 WCole: To answer your questions about the Rover and the LM... There were actually two different designs of LM (and Apollo CSM/SM, too). The original version (the "H"-series) was used on Apollos 9-14. Apollos 15, 16, and 17 used the "J"-series Apollo complex, which (to make a long story short) was both capable of longer lunar stays and of landing a heavier load (it had a stronger engine). The LM descent stage is basically an octagon-shaped platform with the engine in the middle. The engine is surrounded by eight bays that make up the sides of the octagon. Four of the bays are roughly cubic, and four are "corner" bays that are angled. Imagine taking five squares and arranging them into a cross, then connecting the edges into an octagon. That's roughly the structure of the DM. Each one of those bays had something in it -- some had fuel/oxygen tanks, some were equipment bays, etc.. And, on the J-series LMs, one bay (I believe one of the square ones) held the rover. It hinged out like a Murphy bed, so that it pretty much unfolded right onto the surface without the astronaut having to do much. It was, to use a technical term, a bitchin' awesome design....

Now if it somehow contained an ascent stage, we could talk.The SEV is designed to be part used for habitat and to be used for science. As I asked after a lecture at JSC last week, why go if you can't do science while you're there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
