We explore several facets of lunar rovers relevant to the conduct of lunar mining. In particular, we suggest that subsurface mining for asteroidal material shall be necessary. Our end-to-end 30 kg Kapvik microrover prototype has served as a testbed for exploring these issues—terramechanics, vision, SLAM, path planning, onboard intelligence, and multi-rover deployment. We suggest that microrovers are fully functionally capable platforms for lunar ISRU, especially if employed as cooperative fleets.
