A moment frozen in lunar history — Apollo 15, 1971. On August 1, 1971, astronaut Jim Irwin stands beside the Lunar Module and the revolutionary Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) — captured through the lens of Commander David Scott. This was more than a photo. It marked a turning point: Apollo 15 was the first mission to drive on the Moon. The LRV expanded human reach across the surface, unlocking new geological insights and deepening our understanding of lunar history. A powerful symbol of teamwork, innovation, and the unstoppable human drive to explore. #Apollo15 #MoonExploration #LunarRover #NASAHistory #SpaceExploration #HumanOnTheMoon
