The robot is powered by a 72 V/3600-watt-hour lithium-ion battery, which feeds a Power Conditioning and Distribution Module which down converts the 72 V main bus to all the needed voltages for all the different devices on board. NASA has also begun experimenting with a "web" like cable deployment system that would allow the robot to climb and ...

NASA's Curiosity rover, selfie, 2015. A Mars rover is a remote-controlled motor vehicle designed to travel on the surface of Mars. Rovers have several advantages over stationary landers: they examine more territory, they can be directed to interesting features, they can place themselves in sunny positions to weather winter months, and they can advance the knowledge of how to perform very ...
