General Motors has recently disclosed, for the first time, the intricate details of the cutting-edge power battery technology it has developed exclusively for NASA's lunar rover. The company will supply the rover with power batteries, chassis, suspension components, and will also handle functionalities such as traction control and electronic steering. The battery system incorporates a high-nickel cathode material and boasts a fault-tolerant mechanism, ensuring continuous operation even in the event of partial battery failure. Notably, the battery is engineered with additional heating elements and an efficient thermal insulation structure, empowering it to function seamlessly in extreme temperatures of -203°C and supporting the lunar rover throughout the prolonged 14-Earth-day lunar night. The battery pack is seamlessly integrated into the frame to guarantee overall reliability, with an anticipated service life of 30,000 kilometers—a staggering 1,000-fold improvement over the previous generation—and is capable of stable operation in the lunar environment for a decade.
