Tumbleweed: A New Paradigm for Surveying the Surface of Mars for In-Situ Resources

Inflatable and rigid Tumbleweeds are wind-propelled long-range vehicles based on well-developed and field tested technology. Different Tumbleweed configurations can provide the capability to operate in varying terrains and accommodate a wide range of instrument packages making them suitable for autonomous surveys for in-situ natural resources. Tumbleweeds are lightweight and relatively inexpensive, making them very attractive for multiple deployments or piggy-backing on larger missions. Modeling and testing have shown that a 6 meter diameter Tumbleweed is capable of climbing 25 degree hills, traveling over 1 meter diameter boulders, and ranging over a thousand kilometers. Tumble-weeds have a potential payload capability of about 10 kg with approximately 10-20 Watts of power. Stopping for measurements can be accomplished using partial deflation or other braking mechanisms.

Aerospace video imaging systems for rangeland management

This paper presents an overview on the application of airborne video imagery (VI) for assessment of rangeland resources. Multispectral black-and-white video with visible/NIR sensitivity; color-IR, normal color, and black-and-white MIR; and thermal IR video have been used to detect or distinguish among many rangeland and other natural resource variables such as heavy grazing, drought-stressed grass, phytomass levels, burned areas, soil salinity, plant communities and species, and gopher and ant mounds. The digitization and computer processing of VI have also been demonstrated. VI does not have the detailed resolution of film, but these results have shown that it has considerable potential as an applied remote sensing tool for rangeland management. In the future, spaceborne VI may provide additional data for monitoring and management of rangelands.
