A crowd of more than 150 students and faculty packed a lunar expo Thursday in Carnegie Mellon's Planetary Robotics Lab that showcased the progress achieved toward winning the Google Lunar X Prize and creating a sustainable series of exploration missions. The Astrobotic-led mission relies on the experience and technical prowess of the university's Robotics Institute and the inspirations under development by the university's Moon Arts group. A test article for an attitude control system for the expedition's landing spacecraft is demonstrated by Heather Jones (right), observed by Prof. Lowry Burgess and a film crew from the Moon Arts group. One table at the expo displayed robot parts created at the university using composite materials; at top center is the project's vacuum chamber.
