With the exception of the Apollo missions, every other vehicle in the history of space exploration has been equipped with rigid wheels. The Venturi wheel, designed and manufactured for the Astrolab rover, is different. Hyper-deformable, it has the capacity to warp significantly, absorbing terrain irregularities while retaining its robustness and endurance. It can handle slopes steeper than 20 degrees, far beyond the 8-degree limit of rigid wheels.

Bonneville Speed Week (Utah, USA) on August 26, 2010: Venturi set the second speed record in its history: 494 km/h (308 MPH). The VBB-2.5 electric streamliner, developed in partnership with the The Ohio State University and driven by Roger Schroer, achieved this feat. The VBB-3 continued to improve year after year, ultimately setting an unbroken record in 2016: 549 km/h (341 MPH). #Venturi #PoweredByInnovation #MadeInMonaco

From Earth to the Moon : 2 decades of expertise, now dedicated to the space industry through our strategic partnership with Venturi Astrolab. The cells that constitute FLEX's battery packs come from the automotive industry. From a technical point of view, this choice brings with it a number of constraints. These include the need to withstand the low temperatures of the lunar South Pole (-230°C), the absence of atmosphere and the very high levels of solar radiation. #FromMonacoToTheMoon #Venturi #FLEX
