There are hundreds of micro-robotic spheres, which could explore planets like Mars one day. They are just waiting testing by scientists back on earth. These micro-robots are capable of landing on the surface of another planet. They are arranged in a capsule like eggs in a carton.
A balloon floating above the surface can drop them onto the planet. Their spherical shape would help them to move by rolling and bouncing. The micro-robotic spheres can alter their overall shape by being powered by artificial muscles.
