Plus wind up outside the Lem without leaving tracks?

LOL! Sorry to clue you in, Elon, but it's been bankrupt for a long time. What about Babylonian debt slavery didn't you understand? The bitch fight troll continues.

My mind is a Crow, and it just shit down my brain stem.

From DeepSeek (and they're Chinese!)

The Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV), or "moon buggy," was ingeniously designed to fit inside the cramped Apollo Lunar Module (LM) by folding up like a futuristic piece of camping gear. Here’s how NASA packed it for the trip:

1. Folded Like a Swiss Army Knife
Dimensions when stowed:
3.1 ft × 5.1 ft × 3.4 ft (about the size of a large suitcase).
Weight: 210 lbs (Earth weight; 35 lbs on the Moon).

Key folding features:
Wheels: Rotated 90° inward.
Chassis: Hinged in the middle and collapsed.
Seats & Control Handle: Folded flat.
Fenders & Antenna: Detached and stowed separately.

2. Where It Was Stowed
Location: Quadrant 1 of the LM descent stage (opposite the ladder).
Deployment: Astronauts lowered it via a pulley system, then unfolded it in 10–20 minutes.

Yes, and they put the gas cans on the other side to stay balanced.

I thought it was electric.

Of course it was electric. Obviously, one cannot run a gasoline engine on the moon (low gravity makes the pull start too difficult).

That, and the fact that there's no fucking oxygen.

They could have taken tanks of oxygen.

But the electric battery weighed less, of course. Same with the EV vs ICE motor.

Either way....America!
