To improve our Tumbleweed Mars rover, a very important task is to continuously test the current prototype. In early August, the AE Vienna team took the V3 prototype on a little test roll, before it was recently sent off to Israel for the AMADEE-20 mission. Rolling around on Mars like this, the Tumbleweed can cover a lot of area in little time - watch to see the special feature the amazing engineers at AE Vienna have built into the rover! 👏

As a relatively small country, Austria isn't a huge player in the space industry - yet. Recently, co-founders Julian and Nic got to meet our one and only "Austronaut" and leader of Berndorf AG Franz Viehböck, together with our mentor Bernhard Hoetzl. We greatly appreciated the chance to exchange ideas about Team Tumbleweed and space travel!
