日本宇宙航空科学研究所（ISAS）于2003年5月9日为小行星“丝川”发射了工程试验航天器“隼鸟”号。 HAYABUSA 包括一个非常小的漫游车，名为“MINERVA”。 MINERVA 是世界上前所未有的漫游者，它将在小行星表面上移动。火星车的任务目标是：（1）建立小行星体微重力环境下的移动系统；（2）全自主探测示范。本文描述了流动站的设计，特别关注了 MINERVA 任务的两个主要目标：移动系统和自主能力。
Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS) in Japan has launched the engineering test spacecraft "HAYABUSA" on May 9, 2003 for the asteroid "ITOKAWA". HAYABUSA includes a very tiny rover named "MINERVA." MINERVA is the world-ever rover, which would move over an asteroid surface. The mission objectives of the rover are: (1) the establishment of the mobile system on the micro-gravity environment of small planetary bodies, and (2) the demonstration of fully autonomous exploration. This paper describes the design of the rover, especially focused on the two major objectives of MINERVA mission: the mobile system and the autonomous capabilities.
