The Moon Mini-Rover Engineer

Описание: After a decades-long lull, interest in the moon is back -- this time led by startups, including Tokyo-based ispace Inc., which is hoping to land two of its miniature rovers on the lunar surface in 2021. Akane Imamura is part of ispace's team racing to make that deadline, and their ultimate goal is nothing short of making the moon not only habitable, but home to an ecosystem of thriving businesses. Bloomberg Technology's Aki Ito joins Imamura's team as they test their most recent prototypes at a lunar simulation facility run by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency.

This is the first episode of Season 2 of Next Jobs, a mini-documentary series about careers of the future.
