Abstract

The technological improvements in small electromechanical systems and wireless communication technologies have provided an opportunity to use wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in space applications and to explore the Moon, planets, natural moons of the planets, or asteroids. Humankind has sent humans, vehicles, satellites, and rovers to space to discover the Moon, planets, and even asteroids. WSNs can be an excellent choice for collecting and processing vital physical data including temperature, seismic, visual, infrared, light, pressure, radiation, and gas data, among others about target space objects. Therefore, this chapter analyzes applications and studies of WSN use to explore the Moon, planets, and space, and it summarizes the literature. The optimization and solution methodologies in studies are presented, and opportunities and challenges of using WSNs in space-based missions are reviewed. In brief, the environments on different planets or on other space bodies can be highly compelling for such instruments. Therefore, there are still many subjects to be studied by researchers and scientists, and as such, the capabilities and communication skills of sensors must be adapted to space applications.
