About
The Puli Lunar Rover is a low-cost, lightweight planetary rover platform developed by Puli Space Technologies, designed for unique mobility across rough lunar and planetary terrain. It is intended to carry scientific payloads including the PLWS neutron spectrometer to areas of interest on the Moon, supporting geological mapping, resource exploration, and ISRU activities. The rover’s design was tested in multiple planetary analog field campaigns including PISCES (Mauna Kea, Hawaii), MARS2013 (Sahara, Morocco), and AMADEE-15 (Alps, Austria), with cooperation from analog astronauts and international research teams. Puli Space participated in the Google Lunar XPRIZE competition, which shaped the rover’s core design philosophy of lightweight construction and cost-effective mobility for privatized lunar surface access.
