If you want to check out some really neat sci-tech concepts, either click on funded studies and browse the PDFs or you can watch some of the fellows videos. Has everything from cubesats, a titan submarine and fusion propulsion. A fantastic source if you wanna read up on some pretty neat ideas.
I'm reading "Enabling All-Access Mobility for Planetary Exploration Vehicles via Transformative Reconfiguration". If I understand it correctly, it's about building shape-shifting robots for the purpose of "exploration" (the plasma cannon is just for show, really!). Very interesting, thanks for bringing this to our attention!
