The rover and communication devices will get there power from solar arrays to maximize the moons 29 earth day length. In transit the space craft will be powered by liquid oxygen and hydrogen The Bot will communicate through a series of relay signals. The Bot will relay a communication signal to the landing/depolyment pad then to an moon orbet satellite from the space pod that depoled the bot to the moon, then relayed to a earthside satteligth then to mission command background picture from:Selected Communications Accomplishments-JPL/NASA [10]
The rover will escape Earth’s gravity with a Delta class rocket. Then it takes a 3 day trip on a small craft to the moon. The rockets run on Hydrogen and oxygen. The rocket lands in a pillowed pod and then it out folds to the communication and deployment center.
