This moon rover uses a battery management system from a super fast e-bike

Venturi Space has unveiled its latest moon rover, the Mona Luna. Sporting ‘hyper-deformable’ wheels, smart batteries and a battery management system also used in the Voxan Wattman, (aka the world’s fastest electric motorbike), it’s part of a European effort to go to the moon’s south pole… by 2030.

That aforementioned fancy coding to manage the super fast bike’s battery – and specifically heat management – has been adapted to give the moon rover special powers to cope with its unusual environment.
