WE ARE INNOVATORS & DREAMERS
WE ARE RSX

ABOUT US

Robotics for Space Exploration (RSX) is the University of Toronto Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering’s affiliated Mars Rover design team.


We design, build, and compete with Mars Rovers in international competitions, such as the University Rover Challenge, European Rover Challenge, and Canadian International Rover Challenge.


RSX was formed in 2013 by passionate roboticists, space enthusiasts, and undergraduate students. RSX challenges students to be innovative, striving to push boundaries in extraterrestrial exploration. We encourage students to learn about, experiment with, and develop proficiency in engineering technology, and promote growth through hands-on experience.

For us, the sky is not the limit – it’s just in the way.

WHAT WE DO

PAST COMPETITIONS

2024
UNIVERSITY ROVER CHALLENGE (URC)
​

For the first time in six years, our team had the honour of attending the University Rover Challenge in Hanksville, Utah at the Mars Desert Research Station!​

​

Our team encountered new challenges in the field, enduring sweltering heat, completing a demanding 2-kilometer traversal, and more. In the science task, we identified a key topology features and demonstrated our knowledge of extraterrestrial geology, giving us an advantage in the competition.
