Illustration presenting the 5 reasons why we invest in rover technology:

1. To position Canada as a partner in future exploration missions 
2. To develop and test instruments for a better understanding of the Moon and Mars
3. To give Canadian researchers access to scientific data and samples from celestial bodies 
4. To incorporate knowledge gained through research and development into concrete applications on Earth
5. To support our industries in preparing for international missions and generating high-quality jobs for Canadians
