this is how the apollo astronauts got about on the moon. the next time we go to the moon and mars, our vehicles will look a bit more like this. with six wheels, all of which can turn independently, this is the latest nasa prototype of the vehicle that could be crawling over the lunar surface very soon. so we're designing the next vehicle, and the next vehicle goes up in 2023. it's pretty aggressive. we love it. it's like apollo. to make the drive as safe as possible. the active suspension keeps equal pressure on each wheel at all times, and that means you can cover some pretty extreme terrain. oh, my word. are we about to go down that? we can if you like. i would like. it's not worth it. it's not worth the enjoyment. i have children at home! my goodness! this vehicle is already being used to test the practicalities of future moon missions. four astronauts take two vehicles out for two weeks at a time, living and working on board, to work out the amount of food they'll need and the kind of living conditions they can expect. by the way, we're

it comes to landing day now and it's now time to go down to the moon. and there's about a 28-minute period from the time the spacecraft cracks the hill and you go through taking a look at the spacecraft, is it in the proper trajectory, right on down the line. you have a series of go, no go, and you go through this process and then you make the commitment to go for descent. there were four problems onboard the spacecraft that we did not know about, but we would very quickly learn about. when the spacecraft, two spacecraft undocked, there was a residual pressure in the tunnel and it was sort of like a champagne cork pop. it essentially was the same as performing a maneuver. and depending upon the orientation of the spacecraft, it established what would happen in the trajectory. it established a radio velocity component area, but also shifted us down range. we didn't know this until finally we got tracking data, when we heard this, we did not know the impact. we had not figured out what the impact was yet. the crew had been basically upside down and they kn
