The SpaceTeam of the AGH University of Science and Technology (AGH) in Krakow has won the Over the Dusty Moon Challenge, an international competition in which student teams showcase transport systems they have created to move lunar regolith. 

The competition task was to transport lunar regolith over a distance of five metres and a height of three metres. Each of the competing teams demonstrated their prototype systems in front of a panel of judges, who assessed the amount of regolith transported, the weight of the system, the energy consumed, autonomy and overall performance.

The AGH students’ design – TOLRECON 2.0 – proved to be the best.

The Over the Dusty Moon Challenge took place at Golden, Colorado School of Mines in the USA. It was organised for the second time. In last year’s competition, SpaceTeam AGH took second place.
