These can be used to test the performance of new technologies destined for other planets, or put the human body through similar effects as living and working off-world, helping us learn, practice and prepare for the future. Existing terrestrial missions have sent crews to live in hostile environments such as deserts for several weeks, in some cases months, under the same physical, organisational, and technological restrictions that future astronauts will face.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n The space environment is harsh and extreme, other planets frequently have fluctuating day\/night temperatures, aggressive weather events, and unbreathable atmospheres.

Furthermore, increase our understanding of further challenges related to the robotics exploration of caves may be, to tackle them in future missions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n \n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ admin_label=”design” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”-22px||” custom_padding=”1px||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#14f1d9″ divider_weight=”4px” _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”80px” height=”4px” custom_margin=”-31px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Rubik|700||on|||||” header_2_font_size=”44px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” background_layout=”dark” header_2_font_size_tablet=”34px” header_2_font_size_phone=”24px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” header_font_size__hover=”30px” header_font_size__hover_enabled=”30px” header_letter_spacing__hover=”0px” header_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”0px” header_text_shadow_style__hover=”none” header_text_shadow_style__hover_enabled=”none” header_text_shadow_color__hover=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)” header_text_shadow_color__hover_enabled=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_text_color=”#9fb3d6″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_font=”||||||||” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n If you are in the space exploration sector, chances are high you already have heard of IGLUNA<\/a> before. The project, hosted by the Space Innovation<\/a>, aims to support and accelerate the ESA_lab@ initiative which is ESA\u2019s hub for cooperation with universities and academia\/research institutions. IGLUNA\u2019s goal is to create an analogue lunar habitat mission in which its participants can test and show off their future space exploration technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n This year, 13 university teams from 9 different countries take part in this mission along with Lunar Zebro. The main objective of this mission: a field campaign taking place in July 2021 on top of the over 2km high Pilatus Kulm in Switzerland. Its cold temperatures and harsh environment make it a perfect location for recreating the Lunar environment that the Zebro will have to endure and offer a great challenge. Combine that with remote operations experience and it becomes clear why our excitement is so high.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/P09_ProjectIllustration_Rover_v5_3_side_940x570.jpg” title_text=”P09_ProjectIllustration_Rover_v5_3_side_940x570″ align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”-67px||” custom_padding=”94px||” border_radii=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”20px||” border_radii=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=h3WTepx3VmM” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ disabled_on=”off|off|off” admin_label=”design” _builder_version=”4.16″ min_height=”553px” custom_margin=”-22px||” custom_padding=”1px||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0264-scaled-1.jpg” title_text=”IMG_0264″ align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”100px||” border_radii=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#14f1d9″ divider_weight=”4px” _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”80px” height=”4px” custom_margin=”-31px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Rubik|700||on|||||” header_2_font_size=”44px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” background_layout=”dark” header_2_font_size_tablet=”34px” header_2_font_size_phone=”24px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” header_font_size__hover=”30px” header_font_size__hover_enabled=”30px” header_letter_spacing__hover=”0px” header_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”0px” header_text_shadow_style__hover=”none” header_text_shadow_style__hover_enabled=”none” header_text_shadow_color__hover=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)” header_text_shadow_color__hover_enabled=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_text_color=”#9fb3d6″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_font=”||||||||” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n MINAR offers the opportunity to test technology for the exploration of extraterrestrial environments in general, in addition to subsurface extraterrestrial environments. Terrestrial subsurface environments pose special operational challenges in extremes such as darkness, difficulties in accessibility and the presence of dust. This makes them attractive places to test equipment function, assess performance and simulate remote operations. Cave systems on the Moon and Mars which have been observed directly using orbital imagery would provide natural access into the deep subsurface of planetary bodies.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=”on|on|on” _builder_version=”4.16″ disabled=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#14f1d9″ divider_weight=”4px” _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”80px” module_alignment=”center” height=”4px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”techno goals header” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_text_color=”#9fa5d6″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_2_font=”Rubik|700||on|||||” header_2_font_size=”44px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” header_2_font_size_tablet=”34px” header_2_font_size_phone=”24px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” header_font_size__hover=”30px” header_font_size__hover_enabled=”30px” header_letter_spacing__hover=”0px” header_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”0px” header_text_shadow_style__hover=”none” header_text_shadow_style__hover_enabled=”none” header_text_shadow_color__hover=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)” header_text_shadow_color__hover_enabled=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ disabled_on=”on|on|on” _builder_version=”4.16″ disabled=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=” MINAR 9 mission” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”Rubik||||||||” header_line_height=”1.6em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_text_color=”#9fa5d6″ body_line_height=”1.9em” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” animation=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Boulby Mine, UK<\/strong><\/span> UK Centre for Astrobiology, the Boulby Underground Facility and ICL<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”CHILE mission” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”Rubik||||||||” header_line_height=”1.6em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_text_color=”#9fa5d6″ body_line_height=”1.9em” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” animation=”off” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Dec 2021<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [active]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":4041,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1869","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1869"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1869\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5999,"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1869\/revisions\/5999"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/zebro.tudelft.nl\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}“Build a little, Test a little,<\/em> Learn a Lot<\/em>” – NASA\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n
