EDMONTON — The Canadian lunar rover could soon help reveal the moon’s dark side.
The discovery of ice could be a stepping-stone to further explorations of the solar system, including missions staffed by humans, said Chris Herd, a scientific investigator on the mission and University of Alberta planetary geologist.
In November, Ottawa picked Canadensys to build the lunar rover and help with the scientific instruments meant to be shipped to the moon. The Ontario space company has been working in partnership with six Canadian universities and several international partners from the United States and the United Kingdom.Article content
Working on solar power, the rover would go to sleep every 14 days and then work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until the next cycle.
