This week, Astrobotic came closer to its goal of demonstrating LunaGrid-Lite, which aims to be the first system to transmit power between assets on the Moon, by successfully demonstrating power transfer with an ultra-light cable designed specifically for lunar applications. The team successfully transmitted 1kW of alternating current (AC) power through 1,000ft of ultra-light cable. During the transmission, the team measured power factor, cable efficiency, voltage drop, apparent power, and reactive power. These early lab tests show that the cable can throughput 1kW real power at the desired transmission voltage (1kV) and frequency (1kHz) and slightly exceed our expected power factor and efficiency models.

A wireless charging system developed by Astrobotic and WiBotic, with assistance from Bosch, the University of Washington (UW), and the NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC), recently underwent TVAC, vibration, radiation, cryo, and regolith testing. The data collected during these tests will guide system improvements, with the next iteration scheduled for construction and qualification by the end of this year! The wireless charging system is designed to deliver power from a LunaGrid node to power rovers, habitats, in-situ resource utilization plants, and other large surface infrastructure to survive the lunar night.
