NASA has chosen Lunar Outpost's MAPP rover to accompany the Artemis IV astronauts to the Moon, marking the first time humans will work alongside a robot on another celestial body. The rover will investigate lunar dust and plasma to support safe exploration. This step builds on lessons from the Apollo missions about the hazards of moon dust.
