The Tremendous Volt is a lunar rover that will have an excavator arm attached to the back of the body, but would extend over the body to the front, where a bucket would grab lunar soil and stick it in a container in the main portion of the body. It would be a container that would try to carry a lot of different soil samples from different locations. This would allow scientists to be able to study different samples for a wider area. My plan to get lunar dust off my rover would to focus a electron beam onto the rover, because lunar dust is made up of electrons, the electron beam and the electrons in the dust would repel each other and the dust would slide right off. This technique would get rid of about 80 percent of the dust sticking to the rover.
