Robots are going to help astronauts on the moon and other planets in the future. Many companies are working on advanced robots and rovers for these types of missions. The Lunar Dawn LTV was recently awarded a NASA Lunar Terrain Vehicle contract. It comes with autonomous navigation and operation.

This lunar vehicle has a reconfigurable cargo bed. It allows for changing payload with a robotic arm. It can survive extreme conditions, including lunar nights with temperatures going down to -280F.
