Before humans return to Earth’s moon, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration plans to send multiple small robots to identify local terrain and resources, build habitats, and conduct other lunar missions. It has partnered with crowdsourcing expert HeroX, which today launched “Honey, I Built the NASA Payload, The Sequel,” an $800,000 continuation of its earlier competition to develop miniature payload prototypes.
