Abstract:

With the increasing interest in space exploration and interplanetary travel, the design of robots capable of operating in challenging environments such as Lagrangian points is imperative. This article introduces the concept and essentials of Spacerobo, a next-generation robotic system engineered for exceptional performance in the most demanding areas of space. Spacerobo is a lightweight, high-power-to-weight ratio robot designed with cutting-edge capabilities, including advanced transmission systems, energy-efficient engines and comprehensive protection, surveillance and communication features. Its unique design enables seamless operations in the vicinity of Lagrangian points between Earth, the Moon, Mars and Mars’ moons, with future potential for applications near neighboring planets. Spacerobo’s versatility and adaptability make it an ideal choice for diverse missions, from reconnaissance to combat in hostile environments. This manuscript expands on the design principles, operational capabilities and potential applications of Spacerobo, providing a comprehensive overview of its role in advancing space exploration.
