Astronauts of Nasa's first crewed mission to the Moon for more than 50 years hope their journey inspires a new generation.

The little red robots appear to be little more than a pair of wheels, but in between these are tiny computers that provide their smarts. During the recent test, the robots could be seen navigating sandy terrain that’s designed to resemble the lunar surface. The diminutive bots even have the ability to jump as high as one meter.

NASA officials say its Mars-bound ESCAPADE spacecraft is back in Florida and is being prepped for its scheduled launch this fall.
