Eugene Cernan certainly knew a lot about ‘sticky’ moon dust. I trust some very serious testing is planned. I have my doubts about any LED lights, LCD screens and onboard cameras lasting very long with the temperature swings of day/night on the moon. Exposed electronics on earth don’t work well either side of -40/+40 C. I can’t tell much about the ‘tires’ on this rover. Seems to me, the first manned rover(s) back to the moon should be as plain and reliable (e.g. fender repairable) to operate as the Apollo ones were. KISS -keep it simple, stupid.
