<\/figure>Two full-scale development model rovers, part of NASA\u2019s Cooperative Autonomous Distributed Robotic Exploration<\/a> (CADRE) technology demonstration, drive in the Mars Yard at the agency\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California in this image from August 2023. The project is designed to show that a group of robotic spacecraft can work together as a team to accomplish tasks and record data autonomously \u2013 without explicit commands from mission controllers on Earth.<\/p>\n A series of Mars Yard tests with the development models confirmed CADRE hardware and software can work together to accomplish key goals for the project. The rovers drove together in formation and adjusted their plans as a group when faced with unexpected obstacles.<\/p>\n CADRE is slated to arrive at the Reiner Gamma region of the Moon through NASA\u2019s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS<\/a>) initiative. The network of robots will spend the daylight hours of a single lunar day \u2013 about 14 Earth days \u2013 conducting experiments that will test their capabilities.<\/p>\n Image Credit: NASA\/JPL-Caltech<\/em><\/p>\n Powered by WPeMatico<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n Get The Details…<\/a> Two full-scale development model rovers, part of NASA\u2019s Cooperative Autonomous Distributed Robotic Exploration (CADRE) technology demonstration, drive in the Mars Yard at the agency\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California in this image from August 2023.
