Innovative Lunar Lander Technologies for Sustainable Exploration
Day: Thursday 17 October
Time: 16:40 - 17:35 CEST
Location: Red Hall, Level 1, North Wing, MiCo Convention Centre
The recent and diverse set of robotics missions to the lunar surface have utilized different mission concepts and technologies for landing. This panel will focus on the various technologies that developers have utilized in their mission architectures. Discussion will focus on in-space mission design, de-orbit/descent/landing (DDL) approaches, surface survival, payload accommodations, and future plans. We will also discuss lessons learned from recent missions, observations on infusing new technologies, technology gap areas, and medium and longer term technology areas of interest, and how to explore sustainability for the future.
