Synopsis

The iconic Apollo Lunar Module (LM). Borne of a Cold War race to the Moon, its form-follows-function silhouette is unmistakable. The LM consisted of a foil-wrapped descent stage containing fuel tanks and a descent engine, all supported on four spider-like legs, and an ascent stage built of soda-can-thickness metals sprouting a haphazard-looking array of fuel tanks, communications antennas and reaction control thrusters.
