San Francisco : The US space agency NASA has selected four companies — Intuitive Machines, Lunar Outpost, and Venturi Astrolab —to develop a lunar terrain vehicle (LTV) that Artemis astronauts will use to travel around the Moon’s surface.
The vehicle will help conduct scientific research during the agency’s Artemis campaign at the Moon and preparing for human missions to Mars, NASA said in a statement.
“We look forward to the development of the Artemis generation lunar exploration vehicle to help us advance what we learn at the Moon,” said Vanessa Wyche, director of NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.
“This vehicle will greatly increase our astronauts’ ability to explore and conduct science on the lunar surface while also serving as a science platform between crewed missions,” Wyche added.
NASA intends to begin using the LTV for crewed operations during Artemis V.
