— From 2008 to 2010, the NASA Small Pressurized Rover was tested in the Arizona desert in anticipation of human lunar surface missions. These tests were multi-day mission simulations with crew living in and conducting simulated lunar surface EVAs from the rover prototypes for 3, 7, or 14 days. This two-person surface spacecraft represents a departure from most previous lunar architectures, which either featured Apollo-class unpressurized rovers or large pressurized rovers – in some cases up to the scale of being considered mobile outposts. This paper will discuss the history of the Small Pressurized Rover, some of the values of field testing, the rover’s design evolution including the two prototypes tested in the field, key features and advantages of the SPR, the field test site location, the 2008, 2009, and 2010 field tests, habitability lessons learned from the testing, comparisons with follow-on laboratory/high bay testing, and recommendations for third generation rover design and flight vehicle development.
