Students at North Carolina State University designed a wind-powered rover called the Mars Tumbleweed that can collect samples across the surface of Mars like a tumbleweed. They constructed an Earth-based prototype called the Tumbleweed Earth Demonstrator to test the concept and provide data to influence future Mars rover designs.
