"Astrobotic Teams Up with Mission Control for Lunar Rover Mission"
Astrobotic and Mission Control have partnered to use Mission Control’s Spacefarer software to operate Astrobotic’s CubeRover, which will be part of Astrobotic’s next lander mission to the Moon. The software will enable semi-autonomous navigation and analysis of images taken by the rover's cameras. The partnership, stimulated by the Canadian Space Agency's Lunar Exploration Accelerator Program, aims to demonstrate the software's capabilities and open up new opportunities for Mission Control in handling spacecraft operations.
