Apollo lunar module as 3D Model
The conquest of space began with a speech by US President Kennedy.
His words are unforgettable "we will bring a man to the moon this decade - not because it is easy, but because it is difficult ..."
From that moment on, resources were used almost indefinitely to fulfill human dreams of flying to the moon.
The culmination of this work was the Apollo program and the moment when the Apollo 11 mission landed on the moon.
The three astronauts Nils Amstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins are unforgettable when on July 21, 1969 they earth
ed "The eagel has landed" and landed on the moon with the Apollo Lunar Module. Nils Amstrong's sentence when he stepped on the surface of the moon "A small step for a human being, but a big step for humanity" has been written into the history books forever.
The Apollo Lunar Module (short LM for Lunar Module) was built in the 1960s and was constructed in two stages. The lower part - the descent module - remained on the lunar surface when it returned. A total of fifteen of these ferries were made. Six of them landed on the moon with astronauts from 1969 to 1972 (Apollo 11/12/14/15/16 and 17).
The two-stage Altair ferry was designed for the Constellation program in the 2000s. However, the program was discontinued due to the cost and time schedule being exceeded and the ferry was never built.
For the Artemis program initiated in 2019, NASA would like to have two different lunar ferries developed. They should also consist of a descent and an ascent module, and possibly a transfer module for the movement of the ferry between a planned lunar space station and a low moon orbit. In contrast to all previous ferry projects, the Artemis ferry should be at least partially reusable.
Russia and the People's Republic of China also worked out plans to bring people to the moon. yet so far only 12 people, all of them Americans, have dared and managed the Apollo Lunar Module.
For this reason, we would like to thank everyone involved in this daring project and your performance with the Apollo Lunar Module model. Now they too can build a lunar module and face up to the difficulties like NASA. Only ours does not consist of thousands of small parts made of special alloys, but only of 4mm wood.
Please note that this kit is not a toy and can only be played with to a limited extent. Please keep the items away from small children under the age of 6 years . It involves small parts which might break off and be swallowed. We declare the model as a puzzle or decoration.
Item Description:
Material: 4mm wood
Dimensions approx. ca. in cm: (L x B x H) 29,5 x 29,5 x 27,2
Weight approx: 0.5 kg
Content: 1 x lasered kit / assembly instructions
The kit is made of wood and has been lasered. This will cause the edges to look burnt and possibly leave traces of soot and smoke on the wood. These can be easily removed with fine sandpaper.
All components are laser cut so that there is a "beautiful" front and a marked, production-related "bad" back. Make sure that the good side always points to the visible side.
These soot and smoke marks as well as the fact that wood is a natural product, which is dimensionally influenced by basic physical laws such as temperature and humidity, there are certain limitations in the nature of the products, which must be consciously accepted.
We offer the most careful choice of material and the most modern production methods, nevertheless one has to accept with wood the peculiarities and unimpeachable characteristics, which are to be observed again and again in the practice - therefore these can not be claimed by the buyer as a material defect.
