Yaoki is a Moon rover developed by Japanese company Dymon, launched by Intuitive Machine's IM-2 Athena lander in February 2025. Weighing 498g, Yaoki's transportation to the Moon costs $1.2 million per kilogram. The rover's name is inspired by the Japanese proverb "Seven times falling down, eight times risen up". Dymon, founded by robot creator Shinichiro Nakajima, aims to develop the ultimate mobility, and Yaoki is part of the Artemis Program, aiming to contribute to lunar mobility systems. Yaoki is set to collaborate with Spacebit's Asagumo rover on the Moon, communicating with Earth via Astrobotic lander, and taking each other's photos using their cameras.learn more on wikipedia
