Hardly that difficult you'd think they've got an unmanned one on Mars! Maybe should just ask ChatGPT to knock one up.
I think part of the problem is the differing approach to human safety and regulatory compliance compared to back then.
I remember seeing a documentary about the original landings and they were more concerned about beating the Ruskies than they were safeguarding people. The astronauts at the time accepted this risk.
An unmanned vehicle will be subject to less rigorous specifications.
And to ensure the people going are as safe as possible, multiple safety systems need to be developed.
