“A PROTOTYPE OF MARS EXPLORATION AND RESEARCHROVER’

Abstract

The scientific community is very interested in using mini rovers that can travel huge distances and carry multiple scienceinstruments to explore Mars. These rovers would travel to locations that were several kilometres apart, set up equipment against loose rocksor outcrops, look for a sample of interest, and gather soil and rock samples to bring back to Earth. The goal of our study is to createtechnologies that allow for these kinds of situations while staying within the mission's mass, power, volume, and cost limits. Excellentscientific data on the soil and atmosphere will be provided by stationary landers, yielding knowledge on the planet's climatic history. Atmost locations, the soil and atmosphere are probably accessible and well-mixed, allowing for effective characterisation without requiring alot of movement. However, the soil and atmosphere will have significant limitations in terms of comprehending long-term biological andclimatic problems. Each one represents a single point on an evolutionary route and is a cumulative record. It is necessary to gather scientificdata from the rocks, soil, and atmosphere in the vicinity of the landing site.We create a MERR (Mars Exploration & Research Rover) prototype as part of our project. The rover uses DC electric motors for its threewheel driving system and autonomous navigation. Along with sensors like a temperature and distance measurement sensor, it also containsa soil/rock collection arm. For additional study, a roving rover can gather tiny samples of rock and soil from various locations on theexploring planet.
