"NASA's CADRE Rover: Ready for Lunar Exploration"
TL;DR Summary
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has completed construction and testing of a trio of small rovers called CADRE, which will explore the Moon's Reiner Gamma region as a technology demonstration. The rovers, about the size of a carry-on suitcase, will autonomously map the lunar surface and use ground-penetrating radar. The project aims to show the potential of multirobot missions and pave the way for future missions involving teams of robots working together. The rovers have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they can withstand the harsh conditions of space and the lunar environment, and will be installed on a lander headed for the Moon.
