The Future of Prospecting

"A telescope into the underground."

NASA-Funded Mars Ice Drilling Robots, Reimagined for Earth

All of our technologies focus on increasing science return and reducing human involvement. Shown at right is a prototype of our iris core cutter, which enables retrieval of intact stratigraphy while also enabling autonomous drill servicing/unloading at the surface.
