PIX4639278: Lunar vehicle test. Program constellation - Lunar vehicle test. Constellation program - Lunar vehicle test as part of the Nasa constellation program that is expected to take men to the Moon around 2020. Here, a prototype of a pressurised vehicle that would allow future astronauts to travel long distances. Astronaut Mike Gernhardt (visible through the glass) accompanied by geologist Brent Garry spent three days in this vehicle in real conditions of exit to the Moon. October 2008, Arizona, USA. During tests conducted for NASA's Desert Research and Technology Studies (RATS) at Black Point Lava Flow in Arizona, engineers, geologists and astronauts came together to test NASA's new Lunar Electric Rover. Astronaut Mike Gernhardt can be seen through the window and geologist Brent Garry with the Smithsonian Institution is partially visible behind him in the vehicle. The pair spent three days inside the rover, going through the motions of a real three-day geological sortie on the moon. The tests showed that using a pressurized rover would enable astronauts to explore more territory on the lunar surface by allowing them to live for days at a time inside the rover as they travel greater distances from their habitat than would be possible in a non-pressurized rover / Bridgeman Images
