The ESA Lunar Robotics Challenge: Simulating operations at the lunar south pole
Abstract In 2008, the European Space Agency (ESA) challenged universities to design, develop, and test teleoperated robotic systems for a soil‐sampling mission in a simulated lunar‐crater‐like environment. Eight teams participated and developed a wide range of engineering solutions that addressed th...
