00:00:03,310 --> 00:00:11,170
A robotic miner, designed to help make the
most of materials on Mars, recently demonstrated

3
00:00:11,170 --> 00:00:14,179
some of its capabilities at NASA's Kennedy
Space Center in Florida.

4
00:00:14,179 --> 00:00:18,789
This robot is called RASSOR 2.0, short for
Regolith Advanced Surface Systems Operations

00:00:18,789 --> 00:00:19,789
Robot.

6
00:00:19,789 --> 00:00:22,930
It worked with the MARCO POLO/Mars Pathfinder
system to show how the two could

7
00:00:22,930 --> 00:00:27,710
potentially extract critical materials - such
as hydrogen, oxygen and water - from the Red

00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:28,810
Planet's surface.

9
00:00:28,810 --> 00:00:32,570
During the demonstration, RASSOR excavated
regolith and delivered sand and gravel to
