The vehicle we have designed is a type of space tractor called “Cappetbur”.If you’re wondering why you designed a vehicle, the answer is simple: we were morevisually attracted to it.The characteristics of Cappetbur are:

• It has four wheels and, each of them has an electric motor to supply the energyconsumed by the vehicle.

• On the roof of Cappetbur, there is a large solar plate to maintain the ideal temperaturefor the infrastructure and for the astronauts.

• It has a water extractor at the rear that will allow to extract water (it is believed to existat the poles of the Moon) and analyze its components.

• The vehicle contains a copper box, not very heavy, which will drive the energy (whichit needs) to the engines of the wheels.

• The existence of a mechanism capable of transforming the non-renewable energy ofour vehicle into renewable, and this way, avoid the possible harmful gases that canexpand through the Solar System. Because to be honest, we’re destroying the planetwhere we live on and we don’t want this to happen with our satellite as well.

• It has a variety of cameras that allow the central to see everything around our vehicle.• It has a built-in system that allows to place a flag of the European Union because whenwe are talking about the Moon directly our mind goes to 1969 with Neil Armstrong but,the European countries also worked, work and will work in this mission, so our flagdeserves to be up there next to the USA.Cappetbur will recognize the importance of all countries and while Armstrong said:“That ́s one small step for man, one giant leap for makind” (Un pequeño paso para elhombre, un gran paso para la humanidad), in our opinion more than a step, this is astride to a future where we and our future generations will have more knowledge aboutour satellite.TEAM ANDROMEDA:
