Funds The Planetary Robotics Fund

The Planetary Robotics Fund, formerly the Lunar X Fund, supports students and faculty working on research and projects related to lunar exploration.  Past projects include MoonRanger, an autonomous robot that will search for ice on the moon; and Iris, the smallest and lightest rover ever to go to space, built by an internationally diverse group of students from across the university. Both of these projects were led by William (Red) L. Whittaker, the Founders University Research Professor Emeritus at the Robotics Institute.
