Lunar Outpost"s Mobile Autonomous Prospecting Platform (MAPP) rover will be the first robotic rover to operate on the moon alongside astronauts during the Artemis IV mission in 2028, supporting the DUSTER investigation to study the dust and plasma environment on the lunar surface. The mission aims to find solutions to the challenges posed by dust on the lunar surface, marking a significant step in NASA"s Artemis program.
NASA is nearing a decision on selecting a company for its Lunar Terrain Vehicle contract, which has a combined maximum potential value of $4.6 billion, and plans to award one company the services contract while funding a second company as a "warm backup". The decision is complicated by limited funding and the need for firm leadership in place, with three companies - Intuitive Machines, Lunar Outpost, and Astrolab - having completed preliminary design work.
