Artemis II astronauts continued the tradition by using an Airstream motorhome for transport to the launchpad. NASA has employed specially modified motorhomes since the 1960s, starting with the front-wheel-drive, all-steel Clark Cortez. In 1983, the agency switched to an Airstream Excella model called the Astrovan, which had most living components removed to accommodate equipment.
