Apollo Lunar Module technology
The Apollo Lunar Module was a spacecraft designed to land astronauts on the Moon and return them to orbit. It featured advanced lightweight materials and powerful rockets for lunar descent and ascent. Inside, it had navigation systems, life support, and controls for the crew. The module separated from the command module, descended using a descent engine, then launched upward using an ascent engine to rejoin the command module in orbit. Its technology combined precision engineering, propulsion systems, and environmental controls to ensure safe lunar exploration, representing a significant achievement in space engineering and human spaceflight technology.
