The Lunar Lobster is outfitted with four legs and retractable claws that allow it to crawl around the moon without getting stuck. The Lunar Lobster’s antennae, camera, and sensors can be used to contact humans, take pictures of the moon’s surface, and detect obstacles. This rover can survive the tough lunar environment. The solar panel, which powers the rover, has a wiper that can sweep off excess lunar dust. The rover’s two scrapers, which can clear large rocks out of the way, can fold back and pop out cushions to protect the rover’s body. The Lunar Lobster collects regolith in small samples. It can use the drill to penetrate deep down and grind the surface into fine dust. Then, the rover’s scoop will pick up the lunar regolith. Both of the regolith containers, located on the side of the Lunar Lobster’s body, have slide-back lids to prevent samples from escaping.
