Celestial body surface exploration benefits from efficient long-distance travel, precision inspection of objects-of-interest, and overall launch-to-landing weight reduction. Tensegrity structures can be inherently lightweight by using cable networks, while the impact resistance of these same structures may enable them to survive rough landings. This design aims to increase efficiency by taking on the form of a wheel.
