“Apollo 15 marked the start of serious geological training for astronauts. Irwin and Scott underwent extensive fieldwork, including using a geological rover (“Grover”) as part of their training. Worden’s training for lunar mapping while alone in orbit involved flying over new terrain to practice the fine art of geomorphological interpretation from above.”

“Once upon a time, NASA had big plans for the Moon… back in the early 1960’s NASA commissioned General Motors to build the MOLAB, a mobile geological laboratory that would have allowed astronauts to live and work away from a planned lunar base for up to two weeks, collecting samples and learning more about the composition of the Moon.”
