Could you imagine traveling to see your family or going to the store this way?

Due to the extremely delicate structure of the Lunar Roving Vehicle, Apollo crews were warned to drive the LRV with great caution. Strict speed limits were placed on the 1 horsepower vehicle at an absolute maximum of 8mph to ensure the maintenance of proper safety during lunar surface excursions. Almost 250 thousand miles from the nearest tow truck or medical facility, astronauts had to exercise extreme caution .
Pictured: Apollo Astronaut John Young spraying some lunar dust while off roading and catching some air shortly before reaching the lunar record breaking speed of 10.5 miles per hour

January 1, 1956: Oklahoma defeated Maryland 20-6. Pictured below: Oklahoma coach Bud Wilkinson gets a victory ride from his players. The victory gave the Sooners the national championship and was win #30 during the Sooners NCAA record 47 game win streak which stretched from 1953 to 1957. That record longest win streak is still the record.
