LunarPro AI

Software model of the Moon's surface that estimates where helium-3 is concentrated, used to pick prospecting sites.

Why it matters

Rover time on the Moon is scarce and expensive. A model that ranks sites by expected helium-3 helps decide where to send instruments first.

How the technology works

Magna Petra describes LunarPro as a digital twin of the lunar surface. Its machine learning combines models of solar wind history, surface composition and isotope migration to estimate where helium-3 sits, how deep, and how much energy it would take to extract.

The company says it refines the model as exploration data comes in.
