24 kwi 2024 · The Lunar Roving Vehicle was an electric vehicle designed to operate in the low-gravity vacuum of the Moon and to be capable of traversing the lunar surface, allowing the Apollo astronauts to extend the range of their surface extravehicular activities.
3 kwi 2024 · NASA will acquire a lunar terrain vehicle (LTV) as a service from industry to support Artemis missions to the Moon. The LTV will enable astronauts to explore and conduct science on the lunar surface with advanced technologies and capabilities.
2 lis 2022 · NASA is seeking industry feedback on a draft request for proposals for the Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV) Services contract, which will provide a human-class rover for Artemis missions to the Moon. The LTV will enable astronauts to explore farther and conduct more science in the South Pole region of the Moon.
Operated interactively in near-real time by a NASA team back on Earth, the rover must navigate across the rugged terrain of the lunar South Pole while surviving ever-changing extremes in lighting and temperature and periods of communication blackouts.
Surface operations: Rover operations on the Moon sampling ice from four types of lunar environments. VIPER collects data for about 100 Earth days, including multiple survival periods at designated safe-havens.
7 mar 2024 · Part of NASA’s CADRE technology demonstration, three small rovers that will explore the Moon together show off their ability to drive as a team autonomously – without explicit commands from engineers – during a test in a clean room at the agency’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in December 2023.
