The 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.
Today in History: July 31, 1971 – Apollo 15 Astronauts Drove the First Lunar Rover
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.

It is interesting how the things (mountain in the video) look like they are near the camera and the astronauts will ride to it soon. But they ride and ride and the mountain didn't become any closer…
Maybe this is because there are no atmosphere? :dragnthink:

Op deze dag in 1971 werd de eerste auto naar de maan gelanceerd aan boord van Apollo 15! 🚀 Geen files, wél een stoffige bedoening. De ultieme off-road ervaring! 😉 #TechWeetje #Apollo15 #Maanauto #OpDezeDag

Kunstenaar Paul Van #Hoeydonck uit #Antwerpen is overleden. Hij werd 99 jaar. In 1971 ging zijn kunstwerk ‘Fallen astronaut’ mee naar de #maan met de Apollo 15. #FallenAstronaut #Apollo15
RIP ❤️🩹
De Belg Paul Van Hoeydonck is de enige die een kunstwerk op de maan heeft. Zijn beeldje ‘Fallen Astronaut’ werd er door de astronauten van Apollo 15 neergelegd.

Apollo 15 Commander David Scott performed a demonstration to confirm Galileo's theory of falling objects. On the Moon, he dropped a feather and a hammer simultaneously, and they fell and hit the lunar surface at the same time - illustrating that in a vacuum, objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass.

Moon Buggy Makes History! The Apollo 15 mission brought the 1st Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) to the Moon! This allowed astronauts Scott & Irwin to explore further than ever before, driving over 17 miles on the lunar surface.

"This Apollo 15 50th Anniversary film, Galileo’s Moon, was produced by the Apollo 15 crew and associates to record some historical highlights of the mission as well as to share their personal experiences during the exploration of the Hadley Apennine site on the Moon during 1971. The film was produced privately from archival material retrieved from the period of the #Apollo program"...

The idea just popped in my head. Because of my interest in #DSKY and #NASA, I really want to remaster the A15 Delco journal into a fully digital PDF/A format with full text instead of scans and SVG for all diagrams. Many of the pages in the NASA archive are scanned, not straight, and some scanned with visual deformities. A clean remake of the journal will be better preservation and readability of the documents. #Apollo #Apollo15 #Delco #preservation #history
Hyup, #Bulova sent me a package today. #LunarPilot #Moonwatch #Apollo15 #Watches #OneMoreWatch Not the greatest unboxing experience, but nonetheless it is my precious now. Sizing will need to be done, and a #NATO strap added.
#Lacey is wondering if she can play "Schroeder Box".
