Origin comfort beyond the landing pad

The Lynx Rover brings an enclosed two-passenger cabin, practical storage, and Origin's refined interior design to rough surface routes. It gives Phoenix owners and other travellers a comfortable way to continue the journey after the ship lands.

Designed to arrive with the Constellation Phoenix

The Lynx fits the Phoenix garage and can also travel inside many other large ships. That compact footprint makes it a natural final leg for owners who want the same quality of journey in orbit, at the landing zone, and across the surface.

  1. Choose terrain that suits the Lynx Rover

    The Lynx route begins with the Phoenix's landing point, the ground ahead, and a destination that gives passengers a calm way in and out.

  2. Load the Lynx Rover for the task

    Passenger seating, storage, and the cabin route remain uncluttered while the rover carries the final surface leg.

  3. Use the Lynx Rover's strengths on the ground

    The Lynx should reach the destination without letting rough terrain, abrupt inputs, or an avoidable obstacle disrupt the passenger cabin.

  4. Bring the Lynx Rover back to its carrier

    Range, terrain, and the Phoenix's next movement determine when the Lynx turns back toward its carrier.
