From �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder Today: Humans have already been to the moon—and will likely return—but engineering undergraduates Benjamin Mellinkoff and Matthew Spydell have their eyes set on an even bigger challenge: helping humans explore the entire solar system with the aid of robotic partners. Mellinkoff and Spydell work in a NASA-funded telerobotics lab at �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder with a focus on using telerobotics to someday explore the solar system. Since humans are going back to the moon, researchers are transitioning into an era of space exploration that features a human-robotic partnership. Read more...

From �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder Today: A �鶹��Ѱ�� team has entered into a five-year, $3.5-million cooperative agreement with NASA to become part of a virtual institute to pursue the construction of astronomical observatories on the moon.

The research team, led by Professor Jack Burns of the Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences, is one of four new research groups named to join the existing nine that comprise NASA’s Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI). SSERVI fosters collaborations with science and exploration communities, enabling cross-disciplinary partnerships with research institutes both domestic and abroad.

The research group, which will be known as the Network for Exploration and Space Science (NESS), will implement partnerships to advance scientific discovery and human exploration in the lunar environment. The team will conduct research in robotics, cosmology, astrophysics and the study of the sun.

“We are thrilled to be selected by NASA to participate in this new solar system exploration initiative. It was a highly competitive selection process,” Burns said. “�鶹��Ѱ��Boulder has a long heritage with NASA, and our undergraduates and graduate students are involved in virtually all of the space research that we conduct on campus.” Read more...
