Astrobotic Constructs 3D Lunar Surface to Test Landers and Rovers

05/09/2023

Astrobotic has partnered with the University of Maryland to develop the LSPG, which will feature lunar soil simulant, unique lighting conditions, and various geological features found on the Moon's surface. This will enable researchers and engineers to test and optimize their technologies and systems before they are deployed on actual lunar missions.

By providing a high-fidelity lunar test field, Astrobotic aims to accelerate the development and validation of lunar exploration technologies. This will not only benefit Astrobotic's own missions but also support the broader space industry and future lunar exploration efforts.

The LSPG is scheduled to be completed by late 2021, and it is expected to attract a wide range of customers, including government agencies, commercial space companies, and research institutions, looking to test and refine their lunar exploration capabilities.

Astrobotic is a leading player in the emerging field of private lunar exploration. The company has been selected by NASA to deliver various payloads to the Moon and plans to launch its first mission in 2021. With the establishment of the Lunar Surface Proving Ground, Astrobotic aims to further solidify its position as a key provider of lunar logistics and testing capabilities.
