Japanese car giant Toyota has announced it is teaming up with the country’s space agency to investigate creating a vehicle for exploring the Moon.And it would be capable of having a range of more than 10,000 kilometres.It would be 6 metres long, 5.2 metres high and 3.8 metres wide, about the size of two microbuses, with an interior living space of 13 square metres.It would have a crew of two but be capable of accommodating four people in an emergency.The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency , known as JAXA and Toyota plan to accelerate their ongoing joint study of a manned, pressurized rover that employs fuel cell electric vehicle technologies. It would be carried to the lunar surface by a lander already built and ready to roll.Such a form of mobility is deemed necessary for human exploration activities on the lunar surface.Even with the limited amount of energy that can be transported to the Moon, the pressurized rover would have a total lunar-surface cruising range of more than 10,000 km.JAXA envisions launching such a rover as the Toyota concept vehicle into space in 2029.
