LUNARSABER: Powering a Human Presence on the Moon

Honeybee Robotics, a Blue Origin company, is developing Lunar Utility Navigation with Advanced Remote Sensing and Autonomous Beaming for Energy Redistribution, also known as LUNARSABER. In July 2024, Honeybee Robotics captured LUNARSABER’s capabilities during a demonstration of a scaled prototype. LUNARSABER is a future-forward utility solution for the Moon that combines solar power harvesting, power storage and transfer, communications, PNT, and surveillance into a single infrastructure. Highly adaptable and versatile, LUNARSABER is a 100-meter-tall tower that can generate 100kW of power and carry one metric ton of payloads on the masthead. LUNARSABER will accelerate the rate at which we achieve lunar permanence by establishing a shareable, scalable, resource-driven system that integrates with previously isolated lunar assets, including habitats, rovers, and in-situ resource utilization platforms.
