My design would be a normal square base design . 6 wheel belt 3 wheels on each side ,the scoop will be able to hold about 15 gallons of rock and dirt . the machine will have a GPS beacon and video camera so we can keep track and watch what we are doing and track are process . the scoop is a bucket scoop, so we can scoop and dump. it will carry a even amount of soil and rock. it should handle lunar dust well. but we should find a way to clean it wen we give the machine a rest .that way we don't have as many complications with electronics and systems.
