Eduardo San Juan - Apollo lunar rover

In November of 1964 E.C. San Juan of Hayes International Corporation submitted a report and conceptual designs for the construction of a lunar shelter and roving vehicle. This was one of many reports in the "Apollo Logistics' Support Systems" submitted by Hayes engineers as part of the NASA MSFC contract to research lunar exploration technologies.

Eduardo's engineering report details a lunar terrain rover (LTV) that is part of a larger lunar base that would house two people, provide a laboratory, a one person lunar rover, and a rocket belt that could attach to their spacesuits.

His design was not selected, and the actual designer of the lunar landings for the Apollo missions was Ferenc Pavlics.
