Robots Building Infrastructure on Moon and Mars


NASA is planning to send robots to Mars to build roads, landing pads and hangars before human settlers arrive in 2024.

From 2024, the Mars One mission plans to launch a crew of four settlers every two years to establish a permanent human colony on Mars. NASA engineer Behrokh Khoshnevis from the University of Southern California in the US has spent the past two years inventing robots that can be sent to Mars ahead of the colonists to set up all the basic infrastructure they'll need when they get there.
