Airbus's Sample Fetch Rover was destined for Mars until NASA pulled the plug on the project in July. But the team behind it is determined to find it a new role.

While it must be incredibly exciting for engineers to be given the task of designing, building, and testing a rover destined for another celestial body, imagine the disappointment if those plans suddenly fall through.

The decision left Airbus in the unfortunate and rather unusual position of having a finished rover with nowhere to go. One idea is to modify the design of the rover to make it suitable for specific lunar-based tasks, such as driving astronauts around, or transporting materials for building or tools and instruments for exploration.
