Astronauti će u njemu oći putovati tisućama kilometara širokim prostranstvima Mjeseca

Toyota bi za deset godina mogla razvoziti astronaute po Mjesecu, javlja CNN Business. Taj se automobilski div udružio s Japanskom svemirskom agencijom (JAXA) kako bi proizveli električni lunarni rover kojeg planiraju poslati u svemir 2029. godine.

U vozilo će stati dvoje ljudi koji će u njemu, bez potrebe za nošenjem svemirskih odjela, moći putovati duž tisuća kilometara Mjesečeve površine. Iako je izgradnja rovera tek u konceptualnoj fazi, za sada je poznato da bi trebao biti velik otprilike kao dva minibusa.

Toyota razmatra mogućnost mjesečevog rovera od prošlog ljeta, no ovog tjedna došlo je do partnerstva s JAXA-om kako bi se realizacija projekta ubrzala, poručili su iz japanskog automobilskog diva.

It would be carried to the lunar surface by a lander already built and ready to roll.Such a form of mobility is deemed necessary for human exploration activities on the lunar surface.Even with the limited amount of energy that can be transported to the Moon, the pressurized rover would have a total lunar-surface cruising range of more than 10,000 km.JAXA envisions launching such a rover as the Toyota concept vehicle  into space in 2029.OPS:Rendering of the propsed elecytric powered Toyota and JAXA lunar roverPicture supplied by Ferrari, Image: 418961469, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: , Model Release: no, Credit line: Profimedia, Ferrari
