SHO Spotlight: Cardinal Space Mining Club at Iowa State University

April 5, 2023

ISGC Student Hands-On Spotlight: Cardinal Space Mining Club at Iowa State University

The Cardinal Space Mining Club is a student organization affiliated with Iowa State University. As a group they annually compete in the NASA Lunabotics challenge where teams are tasked with designing and building a robot that can operate in a simulated lunar environment. This year, the competition is virtual and therefore a video of this year’s team robot “Atlas” doing the necessary competition tasks can be watched here

This photo is a small group of the team outside of Linden Hall in the sand volleyball court to test this year’s competition robot and film the Proof of Life video for the NASA Lunabotics Challenge. Pictured from l-r: Isaac Petersen, Alex McFadden, Nathan Butler, Nathan Tanner, Alex Warling, Gustave Abagge-Luzzi with robot “Atlas”.
