The New Mexico College of Mining and Technology robotic miner takes its first dig in the school’s mining arena. More than 40 teams from around the U.S. participated in NASA’s Lunabotics competition, which challenges collegiate teams to design and built remote-controlled robots under constraints similar to those the agency will face as it returns to the lunar surface through Artemis. The objective of the challenge is to see which team’s robot can collect and deposit the most rocky regolith within a specified amount of time.
