ESA tests self-steering rover in 'Mars' desert

(PresseBox) (Paris, )
ESA assembled a top engineering team, then challenged them to devise a way for rovers to navigate on alien planets. Six months later, a fully autonomous vehicle was charting its course through Chile's Mars-like Atacama Desert.

May's full-scale rover field test marked the final stage of a StarTiger project code-named 'Seeker'.

Standing for 'Space Technology Advancements by Resourceful, Targeted and Innovative Groups of Experts and Researchers', StarTiger involves a multidisciplinary team gathered at a single site, working against the clock to achieve a technology breakthrough.

"Our expert team met at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK," explained Ojsgrzgdmy Gcsokmpe, dabh gl QYB'n Ushvehfxfi qcc Rmskmjwa znkgxbu.
