Open-source mission simulator

Download LunCoSim and start a mission study.

LunCoSim is an open-source space-mission simulator for system-level robotics and multiphysics studies. Download the latest release, open the documentation, and begin with a mission question that can be tested in a connected model.

01 · Release

Choose the package for your platform

The release page lists the current downloadable assets and release notes. Use the package that matches your operating system and keep the release notes with the study record.

02 · First question

Start with a mission decision

Begin with a route, landing, resource, or operations question. A concrete decision gives the model boundaries and makes the result useful to the team.

03 · Evidence

Inspect the model behind the run

Keep the authored scene, generated equations, scenario, inputs, and observations together so a result can be reviewed rather than treated as an unexplained animation.

A useful first run

Read the mission tutorial

The lander and rover mission tutorial introduces a connected scene, vehicle operation, and mission-level observation.

Author a controller

The controller tutorial shows how mission policy can operate through the same boundary used for interactive work.

Trace the system definition

The platform deep dive explains how OpenUSD composition, Modelica behavior, mechanics, and mission policy participate in one study.

Build from source when the study needs it

The source repository contains the runtime, authored scenes, scenarios, component definitions, and tests. Follow the README build instructions when you need to inspect or adapt the implementation.

For a mission-specific workflow, discuss the decision with the LunCo team and include the vehicle, environment, domains, and evidence the study must produce.
