Minmus Taster Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 https://www.nasa.gov/missions/viper/mission-manager-update-viper-rover-approved-to-move-into-environmental-testing/ I don't know about this, Astrobotics didn't even make it to the moon on their other flight and they have a whole new lander for this rover? What do you reckon their odds are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut the fat from your process and get to some real work.
