Craft Information - KSC Arrival
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 to allow it to drive itself around. The software has already managed to get Lupek over 600km in previous drives, and now the team has turned the rover loose across Kerbin with a full suite of instruments and sensors as it will be equipped when roving around Mun. Previously the rover traveled with a pace vehicle alongside for fast code patches and better monitoring, but now the rover is completely on its own.
Lupek has successfully completed its journey to the grasslands and back. Overall performance was excellent with the exception of the waypoint bug that still needs to be ironed out. Engineers plan to give Lupek a hardware upgrade over the coming weeks.
