Abstract

A multi-modal screw propelled excavation system for small body sample collection includes a craft having screw-shaped wheels to traverse the surface of the target body. When the craft is ready to collect a sample, the craft opens a door to an excavation bin on a bottom face of the craft, and uses the screw-shaped wheels to churn up regolith which is captured by closing the door.
