Nano-rovers and micro-rovers will play a major role in future surface exploration because of their low cost and low mass. Their ability to operate in a rugged, remote environment is important for scientific missions. 

This project will answer important design questions to ensure that these rovers are ready to meet the needs of planned missions, including ability to handle terrain, mobility, and guidance, navigation, and control. Two micro-rover platforms will be used to conduct investigations in a single campaign that mimics lunar conditions. This project will help to improve the core capabilities of Canadian industry, increase its competitive advantage, and develop highly qualified personnel.
