This invention relates to a mar's rover hexagonal main-body component, which is appropriate for severe environmental martian terrain and lava tubes. Background of the Invention
Human space exploration is very risky now a days. After many years humans are travelling to mars from earth. The surface of mars is different as compared to earth. This surface of mars is rocky, volcanoes, dry lakes.
To sustain the living humans in mars is very much difficult. From past fifty years many space companies sent their rovers to mars. It's economically high and used high performing sensors and mechanical subsystems.
When we investigate the previous rovers, the manufacturing cost and placed mechanisms are costly, and budget goes high. No rovers as entered the lava tubes, it's very much complex to communicate the rover to the ground station. We need lot of technology like, high performing antennas. But this rover can able to work on the surface of mars as well as the lava tubes. We used high performing sensors with cost efficient. It is easy to build and can sustain all kind of difficult task in future cases.

USDOE1 0059468 Space vehicle chassis
A modular space vehicle chassis may facilitate convenient access to internal components of the space vehicle. Each module may be removable from the others such that each module may be worked on individually. Multiple panels of at least one of the modules may swing open or otherwise be removable,
exposing large portions of the internal components of the space vehicle. Such chassis architectures may reduce the time required for and difficulty ofperforming maintenance or modifications, may allow multiple space vehicles to take advantage of a common chassis design, and may further allow for highly customizable space vehicles.

Present invention discloses the chassis architecture of rover is basically of hexagonal shape to acquire best longitudinal, lateral, and static stability. Additionally, the materials which have been used for manufacturing rover has enormous strength to withstand severe environmental hazards and to explore the lava tubes.
Furtherly, an exclusive use of nitinol tires, helps in driving of rover over highly uneven terrains with smooth mobility. The mechanical design aims to create a reliable system that can not only accomplish the required functions but also traverse rocky Martian terrain.
In this rover we used hexagon structure which is more stable and spacious to place other instruments and sensors. Aerogel is a thermal insulating material it is effective at transmittingvisible light and blocks infrared radiation so it's used for covers the subsystem inside the chassis.
For wheel we used rocker bogie mechanism this helps to maintain tilt stability, it can traverse terrain wheel left and right rockers individually to climb the obstacles, the main advantage of the mechanism is no suspension required and total loads are distributed equally over all wheels.
The wheel is made up of Nitinol composition which can able to overcome obstacles. Nitinol is a composition of nickel and titanium in a percentage of 49% and 51% respectively. And we used robotics arms to collect the samples from lava tubes and in Martian surface. The main advantage is it is protected from corrosion, provides flexibility and to the wheel. BEST FEATURES OF THE INVENTION:
Nitinol tires which can be able to use in any advanced and risk condition.
Six-wheel mechanism with different dimension.
Chassis used is hexagonal shape because it reduces the thermal stress of the rover model.
Material used for mars rover is Aluminum 7075 because of its good ductility, high strength, toughness and resistance to fatigue. ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION:
We used Nitinol tires which can be able to use in any advanced and risk condition and can sustain more weight of the complete rover.
Using six-wheel mechanism with different dimension. The distance covered between front wheel to rear wheel and center wheel, the distance is different so, the rover can climb in high terrains as well as in lava tubes.
The chassis we use in hexagonal shape because it reduces the thermal stress of the rover model. The stress is distributed over the dooms
chassis and web and makes it stable even in the high temperature conditions
more than 100 degree centigrade.
The material can be used for this mars rover is Aluminum 7075
because of its good ductility, high strength, toughness and resistance to
fatigue.
This rover can work on surface of mars as well as lava tubes Easy to manufacture and ecofriendly non-plastic materials are used
