Abstract

We have started the laser energy transmission technology development from 1997 to apply to a rover to explore the presence of ice in the bottom of craters in the lunar polar region, where no sun light is available. On the contrary, the solar radiation is always available at the periphery of the crater. The solar energy is converted into the electric energy and then to the www.intechopen.
