Exploring the moon will require rovers that can think for themselves
NASA is planning to send three small rovers to the moon with a single instruction: Work out among yourselves how to explore a patch of ground.
AI Summary
NASA’s Cooperative Autonomous Distributed Robotic Exploration (CADRE) mission will deploy three small rovers to the Earth‑facing side of the Moon in a late‑2026 launch. The rovers are programmed to coordinate autonomously, determining how to explore a designated area without human‑issued commands or joystick control.
