60年前: 登月研究飞行器升空
NASA pilot Joe Walker sits in the pilot’s platform of the Lunar Landing Research Vehicle (LLRV) number 1 on Oct. 30, 1964. The LLRV and its successor the Lunar Landing Training Vehicle (LLTV) provided the training tool to simulate the final 200 feet of the descent to the Moon’s surface.
The LLRVs, humorously referred to as flying bedsteads, were used by NASA’s Flight Research Center, now NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in California, to study and analyze piloting techniques needed to fly and land the Apollo lunar module in the moon’s airless environment.

1964年10月30日，NASA飞行员乔·沃克坐在月球着陆研究飞行器 (LLRV) 1 号的飞行员平台上。LLRV及其继任者月球着陆训练车（LLTV）提供了模拟降落到月球表面最后200英尺的训练工具。
LLRV被幽默地称为飞行床架，被NASA的飞行研究中心（现为NASA位于加利福尼亚州的阿姆斯特朗飞行研究中心）用来研究和分析在月球无空气环境中飞行和降落阿波罗登月舱所需的驾驶技术。
