The model is slim but functional. It is coated with a layer of proteus, a very strong and hardy material 85% lighter than steel(5). The wheels do not have any air in them, so they can not pop (2). most of the basics of the rover are modeled after the moon buggy used in the 1970s (2). The rover will take commands from a coding system transferred through the antennae, and then follow through on the commands. It collects regolith using an arm (3), that will put the regolith where another arm inside of the vehicle can take the regolith and deposit it in a storage area. It is powered by a massive battery that is installed on earth, and it also has solar panels to collect extra energy. The rover is insulated and modeled off of models that have worked on the moon.
