Lunar Zebro will be the world's smallest moon rover, measuring no larger than a sheet of paper.

Students at the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands are working on Lunar Zebro, the world's smallest and lightest moon rover.

The Lunar Zebro, named after the Dutch term for "six-legged," will really have six legs instead of wheels.

"Of course, the Zebro's most distinguishing characteristic is its mobility, which is accomplished through the use of C-shaped legs based on the RHex project."

"This allows the rover to navigate rough terrain without becoming trapped."

The project has been in the works for over a decade, though it began with Earthbound implications.

In the following years, the team hopes to deploy one rover to the moon for a technical demonstration lasting one lunar day, or 14 Earth days.
