My lunabot is around 3.5x2x2 in cubic feet. My lunabot has a very strong vacuum at the bottom to suck up the regolith into the interior of the bot. This robot will carry lots of dirt on one trip to make things easier, and the weight doesn’t matter since the bot’s wheels are big, strong, and durable. With the regolith, there is dust that can coat and disturb everything. Well, my Swirly Whirly Wacky Bot has a solution for that conflict. Once the regolith is vacuumed up inside of the bot, there is a vibrating pan that takes the regolith and shakes the dust off and sends it through tubes that spew out onto the ground. My lunabot is solar powered, since there is about an equal amount of sunlight on each side of the moon, the bot can run without stopping due to low power within the lunabot.
