Lunar Module Hatch

Here is Buzz Aldrin exiting the Lunar Module during Apollo 11, the hatch was square in to accommodate the Portable Life Support System (PLSS). It was not just an oxygen tank, it was a fully integrated, wearable spacecraft that provided a pressurized, breathable atmosphere, removed waste, and regulated temperature. #apollo #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari

Lunar Model

The lunar module design underwent gradual evolution from the first configuration proposed by Grumman in 1962. This model is the 1964 version. The configuration of the initial vehicle used with the Lunar Landing Research Facility (LLRF) was changed in 1967 to more accurately reflect the standing position of the astronauts, cockpit arrangement, instrumentation, controls and field of view. #lunarmodule #apollo #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari
