As intern at the Maritme and Multi-Agent Autonomy group of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, my research work is currently focused on the Lunar Crater Radio Telescope (LCRT) project to design a radio telescope on the far-side of the Moon. Th LCRT aims at studying the evolution of the neutral intergalactic medium during the Dark Ages, by tracking the 21cm signal of neutral Hydrogen at different redshifts. The proposal consists in deploying a wire-mesh suspended in a lunar crater, using a coordinated team of wall-climbing tethered robots.
