Astronomy / Space This is Lockheed Martin’s Idea For a Reusable Lander That Carries People and Cargo to the Moon

[Manticore]

Amidst all of NASA’s recent talk about sending humans back to the Moon, aerospace contractor Lockheed Martin says it has come up with a design for a lander that can transport people to and from the lunar surface. The vehicle is just a concept for now, but Lockheed hopes that it could prove valuable for NASA as it pushes forward with its plans for human lunar exploration.

Is that a surplus Apollo lander with a body-kit?

I'd be interested to see what they can come up with. Some of their designs were incredibly forward thinking. I'm grateful they exist just for SR-71 alone - possibly one of the coolest machines ever made

Looks like they missed out on that one. ...it’s a special time restricted edition!

Gotta' protect that exclusivity, else a 47 year old bloke in Norfolk will take Lockheed Martin to the local court!
