Lunar Module (Intrepid)

The Lunar Module "Intrepid" was a spacecraft designed by NASA for moon landings during the Apollo missions. It consisted of two main parts: the descent stage, which contained the engines and landing gear to safely land on the Moon, and the ascent stage, which housed astronauts and equipment to return to lunar orbit. "Intrepid" was used in Apollo 12 and Apollo 14 missions, enabling astronauts to explore the lunar surface, collect samples, and conduct experiments. It was a critical technological achievement that allowed humans to land on, explore, and return from the Moon safely.
