ROD
"What tasks will the robot do?
The tasks that my robot will carry out will be much like tasks that other moon exploration robots/machines have done in the past, except in a little bit of a mashup. Like a lunar rover, my robot will film things with its camera and also use its satellite for communication purposes. It will also, however, collect space rocks and store the ones it deems useful in it’s container, like the Chang'e-5 made by China (which is what I based a lot of my robot on).
What challenges/opportunities is your robot tackling?
Some challenges that my robot may face during it’s time on the moon could be harsh terrain on the moon, harsh weather conditions, and the list goes on and on. But on the contrary, some oppurtunities my robot may face are things such as bringing new moon rock for scientists to study, discovering new things on the moon, etc."
