What were the names of the two land rovers now exploring mars?
the two names were 'Spirit' and 'Opportunity'
What was the code name of the first vehicle driven by man on the moon's surface?
The Lunar Roving Vehicles (LRV's), commonly known as "Rovers" did not have call signs, or code names. When the capsule communicator at NASA in Houston needed to talk to an astronaut on the moon, he simply referred to him by name.The first Rover was driven by David R. Scott, the Commander of Apollo 15. Apollo 16 and Apollo 17 also carried Rovers. All 3 Rovers had television cameras which recorded not only the astronaut's activities while on the moon, but also the launch of the Lunar Module from the moon. The Rover television was controlled at NASA by Ed Fendell.

How does the moon's gravity affect lunar rovers?
The vehicles used on the Moon were designed with the Moon's gravity in mind. They would not function correctly on Earth. So the answer is that the Moon's gravity affects the lunar rovers in the same way as gravity affects cars and other vehicles on Earth.... it is what keeps them on the surface, and prevents from from floating off into space.
What technology has been used to learn about the moon?
Telescopes, satellites, space ships, and rovers!
