Chapter 486 - 303 Hello, Houston_3
These images were usually monotonous and unchanging.
This task was simply to not waste the remaining value of the Apollo 17 Lunar Rover, but since it could not move and had only the front camera, the rover, which could only capture a fixed area in front of it, had already lost any substantial scientific value.
Initially, the upper echelons of Lighthouse Country had shown interest.
But over time, the presence of this group faded.
Some senior leaders began to think this monitoring was almost meaningless.
Thus, in the decades following the end of the Apollo 17 mission, the lunar rover, which only transmitted the same old information every day, was gradually neglected, and related funding steadily decreased.
The number of team members responsible for overseeing it was also reduced to five. They squeezed into a small, independent office, continuing this seemingly pointless work.
It was said that NASA had recently considered disbanding this meaningless department to cut unnecessary personnel expenses.
Fortunately, the idea had not yet been implemented.
The relevant team members were still able to continue muddling through their days.
The team members were quite satisfied with this laid-back lifestyle. They did not hate it.
