So once they are in the suits... ummmm how will they get back in?

Is anybody else thinking NASA could have made something much much cooler? As Maestro pointed out, at leas fix the squeaky sound. Oh and yes I know its a prototype for anybody who will attempt to argue for the vehicle.

But the real question is: How fast can The Stig drive it around the Top Gear test track?

wouldn`t be so unstable in a low gravity environment ... i guess they are designing this thing to go to the moon, not the golf course.

Very cool.
However they should (an probably will) develop a suspension system on it, because the surface of the moon isn`t exactly smooth..

we want to go back to the moon? what a short sighted bunch we are. ITS BEEN 30 YEARS PEOPLE! i don`t think there is a single discipline of science that should be MORE respected and receive HIGHER funding then the space program, and our ability to explore it has gone nowhere since Kennedy. we are so amazingly useless and insignificant as a species its astounding. there is enough geothermal to provide ample power for everyone a hundred times over but instead the TV makes you think that there is relevance to bickering over fossil fuels. we truly are doomed.

^It`s a pressurized lunar car that is built for functionality and space travel. I don`t think Nasa gives a shit if you think it doesn`t look `cool`, it`s going to fucking space. It`s not its job to look cool, its job is to go to space, then the moon, and do useful shit while not killing all of the crew in the process. Don`t be such a dumbass.

You`re what is wrong with this world.
