ATHLETE (All-Terrain Hex-Limbed Extra-Terrestrial Explorer) is a six-legged robotic lunar rover under development by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). ATHLETE is a testbed for systems, and is designed for use on the Moon.[1]

The system is in development along with NASA's Johnson and Ames Centers, Stanford University and Boeing.[2] ATHLETE is designed, for maximum efficiency, to be able to both roll and walk over a wide range of terrains.[1]
