Published purpose
The world is striving to settle and develop the Moon. However, no one can stay there for longer than a few days without affordable ways to obtain the critical energy needed to survive the extreme cold. Volta will solve this problem beaming energy from satellites in lunar orbit to energy receivers on the surface specifically designed to work on the Moon. The first of these receivers will be developed and tested by Volta in this project, with a breakthrough technology that can ensure stability, and performance for unprecedented mission opportunities. Furthermore, Volta will send a small-scale version of its receiver to the Moon.
