Hunter's comment

The best steemhunt finding in 2018?

Here it is: Your own Mars Rover!


Fresh from Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California the engineers of JPL went to work designing a model that could be assembled from commercial off-the-self (COTS) parts for as little as $2,500.

The JPL Open Source Rover is a scaled down version of Curiosity (the original Mars Rover), from its 6-wheel steering all the way to its Rocker-Bogie suspension.

The design of the JPL Open Source Rover is published under an open source license on Github so that you can download baseline instructions and test plans for building your own Open Source Rover.

If you want something really cool
then you want this!

Superb Hunt.

This will help out a lot of engineering students and will satisfy the curiosity of a lot of enthusiasts. While discussing the particulars, they have also suggested many ways to be more creative with this project. It'd be a learn with fun hunt for many hunters and NASA lovers.

Keep up hunting amazing products/projects, @klippengeist.

5 out 5 for you! This is very helpful for students who really likes to explore the planet mars in terms of curiosity. If want to also build your own rover - For Future Engineers, I think this is the best open source simulator. Cheers and Goodluck with your next hunts!
