OSTI ID:7267932
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has recently been conducting studies regarding missions to establish permanent manned facilities either on Earth's moon or on Mars sometime in the next few decades. This paper addresses issues associated with the operation of manned, teleoperated and autonomous land vehicles to be used in the lunar environment. Current capabilities in teleoperation and autonomous navigation for land vehicles in the terrestrial environment are discussed, as are the technology issues and new capabilities required to extend the current capabilities to a lunar operating environment. 16 refs.
