My bots name is Selene, for the Greek goddess of the moon. My bot has everything it needs to collect moon samples. Starting from the top, the green cube is where its battery is stored, and the sides of it are solar panels to charge the battery. Right in the front, there is a camera to see what is happening. The wheels have hundreds of grooves in them to work the dirt and crush clumps. The dirt is collected in the pink opening and stored there when the panel closes. There is a panel at the bottom that slides open to empty out the dirt but first, the wheels move down to lift up the bot to help it empty out more efficiently. My robot is no larger than 3.5 feet x 2 feet x 2 feet in size.
