Michelin a republié ceci
For the first time, Michelin is running its lunar tires on volcanic soil in France. Three months after announcing that Michelin and its partners were selected by NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration for phase 1 of the ARTEMIS project, these tests allow us to observe how these revolutionary tires behave on a surface with similar characteristics to lunar soil. We are also testing the ability of these tires to operate at temperatures above 100°C and below -240°C, withstand exposure to solar and galactic radiation and preserve the rover battery autonomy. These extremely demanding tests would not be possible without Michelin's expertise in composite materials and airless technologies. Michelin, on the road and beyond.
