Reloquence is charting maps of the Moon and Mars that include a network of rover traverses based on a planetary address framework called the Eskey System. To date, Reloquence has named and located 24 roads on the Moon and 8 roads on Mars. We hope to accelerate the advent of space mining and sustained human presence on the Moon and Mars by at least a decade. Longer term, we see the maps as forming the foundation for a space logistics platform, codenamed "Uber Space." Join us at the ISDC LaunchPad Lightning Talks. Not all space-related topics demand a full hour to explain, and some emerging ideas at the ISDC are simply so new and unique that they have not yet been fully explored and developed. The Launch Pad Talks are home to some of the newest and most exciting ideas in space exploration, development, and settlement, by some of the newest voices in the field. Drop in for one or stay for a dozen—the Launch Pad Talks contain some of the most exciting new ideas you will hear this year!

Planetary Address Framework Global Consensus Nomenclature Guidelines

4. SOLUTION
Planetary road maps connecting
landing sites to destinations of
interest using a global standard
Allow clients to license or
commission maps of the
Moon and Mars with roads
named, located and vetted
via nomenclature guidelines

5. Quadrangles define regions on planetary
bodies, but only a small subset have been
named. The name is essential for my
framework in that it defines the equivalent
of a “city” or a “state.” The numerical
astronautical charts are the equivalent of a
“zip code.” A planetary address is a
numerical identifier + a named planetary
road + a named quadrangle + a numerical
astronautical chart + the planetary body.

9. Timeline of Space Exploration includes notable achievements, first accomplishments and
milestones in humanity's exploration of outer space.
In addition to defining the first planetary address framework and naming the first 32 roads in space, I
am also the first to describe a field of study called "space roadbotics." The current state of the space
road discussion focuses on leveling and paving the surfaces using lasers, microwaves or 3D printers,
but I am diverging from that approach and recommending a fleet of autonomous roadbots that are
optimized for speed. I am suggesting that a network of rover tracks is the superior choice. There is no
wind or atmosphere on the Moon, so rover tracks can last forever.

11. As part of the RAPID project led
by GMV for the European Space
Agency (ESA), GMV is currently
designing and developing a
cutting-edge robotic platform, an
autonomous rover capable of
safely traversing lunar areas at an
average speed of 1.1 m/s, a
speed never before achieved on
the surface of a distant planet by
an autonomous robot, using a
guidance, navigation, and control
(GNC) system based on visual
navigation, i.e. on images
generated or acquired by
cameras installed on the rover.

12. Investing in a fleet of US roadbots
vs. Investing in a space logistics
platform
Near-term technology, requiring
access to space communications
protocols and channels
Open Planetary Roads Foundation
The proliferation of the US lunar
road maps as a precursor to
adopting the Eskey System as an
international standard provides
an opportunity to gather support
in preparation for the much more
ambitious goal of launching
"Uber Space.“
