Description
Beginning in the early 1960s, spacecraft designers at NASA’s Langley Research Center worked through several designs in the evolution of the Apollo Lunar Excursion Module (LEM). This image depicts one of the earliest LEM designs from 1962 after landing on the Moon as it might have been imagined by artists of the time.
The style of the scene echoes that of early concept illustrations that were typical of the period. Steep mountains dominate the lunar landscape. A crater has been excavated into the soft dusty surface by the descent engine exhaust plume. The sky is dotted with brilliant stars and is filled with bright cloud-like areas of color. The Earth is shown as a cloudless globe. And, the Apollo Command and Service modules are clearly visible streaking overhead.
