Re: Perpetual Lunar Rover
Janus beat me to mentioning an important point that would make it much easier. If you land the rover in the dark and start its trip when the sun hits it, it will have much more than its 29 day period to make the distance.
You could also increase the latitude slightly to make the trip shorter.
The other side of the moon isnt as bad as Al makes out - but even the side facing us is covered in obstacles, its this part that makes it impractical. Why not just image the moon in high-res from a low orbiting satellite.
