Knowledge ZoneThe Hadley–Apennine region is located on the near side of the Moon, on the eastern edge of Mare Imbrium.
It served as the landing site for the #Apollo15 mission in 1971, allowing astronauts to explore a unique combination of mountainous terrain and a volcanic channel.

No GPS. No backup. Just Earth behind them and lunar dust ahead.
The LRV didn’t just move — it inspired AI mobility from Mars to your driveway.
Built by Boeing + NASA. Driven by legends.

IngaI used to want to study aerospace engineering. I still find the subject fascinating, but I have different goals now (not saying anything about those until I accomplish them though). Seeing this ol' thing in person was however one of the coolest things and my 17 year old self might have cried.
