On the second day of the Team Summit, held in Santiago de Chile, the teams were updating on their status and activities. All teams except three attended the Summit.
The technical approach of each team is very diverse. While some of the teams are “just” developing a small rover to be boarded to another team’s lander, other teams are facing the amazing challenge of building their own launcher.

March 22, 2013 - by Barcelona Moon Team’s other rovers
While the four wheeled rover is the final choice for the Barcelona Moon Team rover, Galactic Suite Surface Operations along with the National Institute for Aerospace Technology have gone a long way analyzing and testing other mechanical options. We started with a 6 wheeled rover and progressively reduced its number of wheels to reduce the complexity and minimize the number of motors. Our lander design and the capacity at LTI of the LM2-CTS2 left about 14kg for our rover (beside the commercial extra payload).
