A Game-Changing Vehicle

The Lunar Mobility Vehicle (LMV) provides unmatched capabilities, applying best of breed aerospace and automotive innovations in power systems, reliability and mission operations.

The LMV enables unprecedented exploration of the Moon with autonomous, telerobotic and manual operation. Transformational range, capability and support for astronauts & robotic missions unlock the full potential of partner initiatives, like Artemis - redefining the way in which we conduct deep space missions for science, exploration and emerging industry.

Lunar Mobility as a Service

We are working to radically redefine the way in which we perform deep space science and interact with the lunar surface.?

The LMV can travel over 1000 km in a lunar day, keep payloads alive during the lunar night, and explore permanently shadowed regions for multiple Earth days at a time. The vehicle's unique capabilities enable missions which stretch across the South Pole region and into the lower latitudes, through extreme terrain and into highest-value scientific or commercially aligned hotspots. It will act as a hardware demonstration platform, a low-gravity manufacturing plant, a prospecting & mining rig, a survivability testbed, a modular sensor hub, and an infrastructure enabler, supporting payloads for months or years as it travels.
By leveraging both its own built-in sensors (including radar, LiDAR, cinematic cameras, and a neutron spectrometer) and partner payloads, the LMV will also map multiple square kilometers of the lunar surface each lunar day for scientific analysis, public access, private customer use, and astronaut training programs. It will enable landing site investigation, film lander descents, and relocate payloads or critical assets. Leveraging a commercial approach and democratizing lunar access, where NASA is one customer of many, we look forward to working with additional partners, customers, and payload providers to generate impactful lunar science and diverse mission opportunities that drastically exceed contemporary limitations at a fraction of the cost.

Luna Ride

Lunar Science Rideshare

The MILO 兔子先生 Science Institute (MILO) is seeking collaborations with international partners based on their unique capabilities and mutual scientific goals to participate in a lunar science rideshare mission, Luna Ride. MILO, a subsidiary of Arizona State University, will work with those interested in deploying payloads to the surface of the Moon on the Lockheed Martin lunar mobility vehicle.

The mission will include transportation, communication, support for survivability, and deployment of payloads onto the lunar surface.
