日本政府管理的科研機(jī)構(gòu)宇宙航空研究開(kāi)發(fā)機(jī)構(gòu)（JAXA）希望將本國(guó)汽車巨頭豐田產(chǎn)的汽車送上月球。選擇的不是家用小轎車,，而是一輛加壓的自動(dòng)駕駛越野車，屆時(shí)將在月球表面行駛,。

這輛車預(yù)計(jì)將在2029年面世,，裝有六個(gè)輪子，可載兩人,，緊急情況下可容納四人,。車輛利用太陽(yáng)能和豐田開(kāi)發(fā)的燃料電池技術(shù)，續(xù)航可達(dá)1萬(wàn)公里,。

JAXA的總裁山川宏在事先準(zhǔn)備的聲明中表示：“JAXA爭(zhēng)取通過(guò)國(guó)際合作和技術(shù)研究,，讓日本參與國(guó)際空間開(kāi)發(fā),。我們希望貢獻(xiàn)日本尖端技術(shù)，產(chǎn)生一些潛在的附帶益處,。豐田加入國(guó)際空間開(kāi)發(fā)極大地增強(qiáng)了我們的信心,。”

“通過(guò)聯(lián)合研究不斷推進(jìn),，我們將利用豐田在運(yùn)輸領(lǐng)域的出色技術(shù),，加快技術(shù)研究，讓載人的加壓越野車成為現(xiàn)實(shí),?！鄙酱ㄟ€稱。

在尺寸方面,，該款越野車與兩輛小巴差不多,，居住空間約有13平米，可供探索月球表面的宇航員休憩,。

這輛車和駕駛的宇航員將分別進(jìn)入太空。待登陸月球后,，車將跟宇航員會(huì)合,。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

Japan’s Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is looking to take Toyota to the moon. Instead of a family sedan, the car manufacturer is making a pressurized self-driving rover to cruise the lunar surface.

The vehicle, which is expected to make its debut in 2029, is expected to have six wheels and be capable of transporting two humans (four in an emergency) a distance of 10,000 using solar power as well as fuel-cell technology being developed by Toyota.

“At JAXA, we are pursuing international coordination and technological studies toward Japan’s participation in international space exploration. We aim to contribute through leading Japanese technologies that can potentially generate spin-off benefits,” JAXA President Hiroshi Yamakawa said in a prepared statement. “Having Toyota join us in the challenge of international space exploration greatly strengthens our confidence…

“Through our joint studies going forward, we would like to put to use Toyota’s excellent technological abilities related to mobility, and we look forward to the acceleration of our technological studies for the realization of a manned, pressurized rover,” Yamakawa continued.

Size-wise, the rover will be around the size of two minibusses and will have 13 square meters of habitable space for astronauts to move around inside while they’re exploring the moon’s surface.

The vehicle will be sent separately from the humans that will ride in it and will meet the astronauts once they arrive on the moon.
