My design is a Lego block-shaped robot. On the sides, there will be two all-terrain wheels that are bigger than the robot itself for extra power. This is an extra help because it is easier to deal with the lunar dust, so even if it sticks to the tires, it will be fine. My robot will collect the lunar regolith by scooping it up with a claw. After it scoops the regolith up, a yellow square-shaped bucket will come out below the claw, so it can collect the lunar dirt. I think that my robot can move a medium-sized amount of regolith. The robot might even wait to put a few scoops in the bucket before transporting it. My robot will handle the lunar dust by making the bucket, claw, and robot out of steel. This is good because this material is lighter and sturdy.
