👉 The Probe Project, initiated by the European Space Agency (ESA) in collaboration with industry partners, aims to develop and demonstrate advanced technologies for future space exploration missions, particularly focusing on in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) and robotic exploration. It involves the creation of a series of robotic probes designed to explore various celestial bodies, such as the Moon and Mars, with the goal of testing technologies that can extract and utilize local resources like water ice and regolith to support long-duration missions. These probes are equipped with cutting-edge instruments for scientific research, environmental monitoring, and resource assessment, contributing to the development of sustainable space exploration capabilities.
