RGS Development designs, manufactures and integrates thermoelectrical devices for Radioisotope Power generators (RTG), a proven space power system, used by long lasting missions like the Cassini, Galileo probes or rovers like Perseverance.
By developing scalable systems, our aim is to deliver state of the art, enduring, Heat & Power systems for Moon, Mars and deep space applications.
Applications: Endurance mission
This rover aims to traverse approximately 2,000 kilometers across the lunar farside, collecting up to 100 kilograms of geological samples. It seeks to address fundamental questions about the Moon's formation, the history of the Solar System, and planetary evolution.

RGS Development is part of the Next Gen RTG program, by providing vital parts of the thermoelectric elements of the system.
This coming RTG, based on the Heritage GPHS-RTG, is set to be the most powerful RTG on the market. It will enable exploratory missions for deep space and other celestial bodies.
RGS develops with its partners a generator able to fill the gap between the heritage RTGs and the low-power systems, empowering Robotic exploration.
With our partners, we aim to develop a SLP RTG, aimed for small systems operating on the surface of the moon, requiring continuous power, and heat to resist the lunar night.
