NASA’s Desert Research and Technology Studies (RATS) project is a NASA-led team of engineers, researchers and scientists. The 2010 Desert RATS field tests will be conducted in the Arizona desert, an analog location used to simulate future planetary exploration missions.
The annual Desert RATS project brings together a variety of science and advanced engineering disciplines into a coordinated field test in terrain conditions analogous to other planets or the moon. The purpose of Desert RATS is to assess new and novel concepts for surface exploration, including astronaut activities, crew rovers, robots and mission control.
