Georg Heinrich Patrick Baron von Tiesenhausen (May 18, 1914 – June 3, 2018)[5][6] was a Baltic-German-born American rocket scientist.

He is credited with the first complete design of the Lunar Roving Vehicle which was driven on the Moon on the Apollo 15, 16, and 17 missions, and made a variety of other contributions to the space program.
