NASA’s Break the Ice Challenge
Posted on: September 11, 2023
We have an exciting test happening right here at CASP over the next couple of weeks!
As part of NASA’s Break the Ice Challenge, the Colorado School of Mines and Lunar Outpost’s team, the Ice Diggers, are testing their lunar excavation rover, the Outpost Digger System (ODS). This rover will be capable of excavating nearly one ton of concrete-hard lunar regolith per Earth day. This durability demonstration test will last 15 days.
