For over a decade, NASA has employed cutting-edge technology to study glaciers in the world’s most extreme environments.
Meet The Ice Worm! NASA’s Robotic Ice Crawlers are a series of robotic systems designed for exploration and data collection in extreme environments, particularly on ice-covered terrains such as those found in polar regions and potentially on other planets or moons with similar conditions.
These robots are part of NASA’s larger efforts to develop technology for exploring and studying environments that are challenging or dangerous for humans.
