The International Lunar Research Station, to be established around 2030, will equip lunar rovers with robotic arms as constructors. Construction requires lunar soil and lunar rovers, for which rovers must go toward different waypoints without encounterin...

The issue of thermal control for space missions has been critical since the early space missions in the late 1950s. The demands in such environments are heightened, characterized by significant temperature variations and the need to manage substantial de...

A human Mars mission is more challenging to astronauts than the Apollo mission because of travel time, life support requirements, and the space environment. Although plans for Mars exploration by NASA and SpaceX based on conventional rockets have been pr...

The global path planning of planetary surface rovers is crucial for optimizing exploration benefits and system safety. For the cases of long-range roving or obstacle constraints that are time-varied, there is an urgent need to improve the computational e...

We present the preliminary design of sailplanes, used for Mars exploration. The sailplanes mitigate the weight and energy storage limitations traditionally associated with powered flight by instead exploiting atmospheric wind gradients for dynamic soarin...
