The Science Autonomy System (SAS) is a hierarchical control architecture for exploration
and in situ science that integrates sensing, navigation, classification and mission planning.
The Nomad robot demonstrated the capabilities of the SAS during a January 2000
expedition to Elephant Moraine, Antarctica where it accomplished the first meteorite
discoveries made by a robot. In the paper, the structure and functionality of the three-tiered
SAS are detailed. Results and lessons learned are presented with a focus on important …
