Our rover is intended for the mining of silicon dioxide (SiO2) on the surface of the Moon. The main challenge our rover needs to overcome is the lunar dust stirred by the movement, drilling, and collection of the rover. Our rover will use magnets to protect delicate machinery from the abrasive lunar dust. The rover will consist of a box containing the motors and batteries. Four legs, attached to 4 pivoting wheels, will be situated on the sides of the rovers. This main body will be composed of wood. The "brain" will contain a camera and be elevated on a rotating and telescoping pylon extending from the body.

Next Steps:

؜1: Make the body more sturdy.

2: Add, build, and code the drill.

3: Make all of our wires more organized.

4: Add finishing touches like a light or designs on the side.
