The primary purpose of the robotic planetary rover is to deploy scientific instruments to targets of interest and acquire physical samples for in situ analysis by scientific instruments or for subsequent return to Earth. The first step in scientific analysis of soil and rock from planetary surfaces and subsurfaces in particular is sample acquisition. Sample acquisition is typically performed by robotic manipulator, abrasion, drilling, and burrowing.
