ISGC Student Hands-On Spotlight: Cardinal Space Mining Club at Iowa State University
The Cardinal Space Mining Club is a student organization affiliated with Iowa State University. As a group they annually compete in the NASA Lunabotics challenge where teams are tasked with designing and building a robot that can operate in a simulated lunar environment. This year, the competition is virtual and therefore a video of this year’s team robot “Atlas” doing the necessary competition tasks can be watched here
