Lupek Testbed

Craft Information - Traveling to W6

Lupek is a rover that will someday be deployed to Mun. It is the KSA's first rover and the team developing it has worked up some automated driving software that needs testing. This stripped-down version of the rover will be traveling over 150km from KSC to the west shore desert to stress-test the new software, with a crewed support vehicle following close by to monitor and upload code revisions.

It has already completed a full day's worth of driving, and is on its last leg to the final destination deep within the west shore desert.
