NASA plea searches for the solar-powered Night Rover

NASA continually opens up hurdles to foster development of new as well as exciting space record, and it looks like it’s come up with a particularly severe one not long ago — it’s asking interested parties to develop the solar-powered “Night Rover” that can store up sufficient energy during a day to goon to work via the night. That’s as opposed to a some-more new crop of rovers which contingency do most of their work during a day, which NASA says forces them to pick as well as choose what tasks a rovers perform, thereby severely reducing the possibility for discoveries. It also notes which simply adding some-more batteries isn’t an choice, given each tiny weight enlarge significantly adds to the cost of sending something into space. Think you’ve got what it takes? There’s a $1.5 million dollar prize in store for a leader.
