Rover searches California desert for water to simulate future Lunar missions
Published on Mar 19, 2015
Water is critical for human existence, whether on our planet or distant destinations. In support of future space exploration, researchers from NASA’s Ames Research Center are searching for water closer to home -- in the desert near the Mojave National Preserve in Southern California.
The Mojave Volatiles Prospector, or MVP project, is a test bed for scientists from Ames to develop the technologies and procedures that will be needed to search for water ice and other volatiles that might be hidden under the surface of the Moon, Mars or another planetary body.

Designing robots for future space exploration
Published on Jan 6, 2017
The Intelligent Robotics Group at NASA Ames Research Center has more than 25 years of experience in building robots and developing software to allow humans and robots to work together. One of their key developments is a 3D user interface called Visual Environment for Remote Virtual Exploration, or VERVE, that allows a human operator to see the world from the perspective of the robot. VERVE has proved to be useful with many different types of remotely operated robots in a variety of applications. Through a technology transfer, a version of VERVE has been adapted by Nissan North America for use in their autonomous vehicle systems.
