Dave, you might enjoy “Across the Airless Wilds” by Earl Swift, about the development of the lunar rover. It discusses, for example, the engineering and testing of the mesh tires, including the initial proving grounds along Hwy 1 in Santa Barbara. An interesting story about cutting edge technology for space vehicles.
