Description
The lunar orbital platform-gateway will serve as a staging point for manned and unmanned missions to the moon, mars, and beyond. While the gateway will sustain human crews for small periods of time, IT will be primarily staffed by autonomous caretaker robots like the free-flying astrobee platform: the gateway's sole residents during quiescent (uncrewed) periods. This creates a unique human-technical system comprised of two categories of human teammates: ground control workers permanently stationed on earth and astronauts that may transition over time between work on earth, the gateway, the moon, and mars and three types of machine teammates: robot workers stationed on the gateway robot workers stationed on the moon and mars and the gateway itself.
