Moonmobiles and the rocky road to lunar travel
The article surveys how future Moon exploration might unfold with unmanned moon jeeps. It weighs wheel and leg designs against lava terrain and dust fields, notes JPL scientists favoring a folded ground that packs dust, and highlights a three legged vehicle with claws proposed by Dr. Green. It also discusses the Moon's surface whether volcanic or meteorite formed, and the challenge of finding a reliable landing platform.
