Cardinal Space Mining Clinches Grand Prize at NASA Lunabotics Challenge
==========
Cardinal Space Mining, a student-engineering club from Iowa State University, has won the grand prize at the 2024 NASA Lunabotics Challenge. The club, along with the University of Alabama Astrobotics, tied for the grand prize and also took first place in mining and berm building. This victory marks their successful defense of last year's titles at NASA's 2023 online Lunabotics Challenge and the University of Alabama's Robotic Mining Challenge. The competition involved designing, building, and operating mini robots to simulate lunar surface mining. Cardinal Space Mining's robot, named LANCE1, was able to adapt and perform well despite the challenges and rule changes throughout the competition.
