Provided herein are various enhanced systems, apparatuses, and techniques for on-surface analysis of celestial or terrestrial surfaces, such as for discovery and analysis of water ice deposits, locations, abundances, and depths. An example herein includes a swarm of spherical payloads sequentially deployed by a deployment host across a large area of a surface to impact the surface, sense properties of the surrounding environment using avionics and scientific instrumentation, and to establish a communication network to collect and transmit collected data.
