As part of the upcoming tests, which willcontinue for several months, YFCF engineers will figure out what types of surfaces, slopes and climbs the compact wheeled robot is ready for. In addition, its roll-over protection system will be tested. The rover will be endowed with the ability to bounce so that it has the ability to get back on wheels if it gets into a difficult situation while already on the surface of the moon.
