Advanced Lightweight Lunar Gantry for Operations (ALLGO)

The Advanced Lightweight Lunar Gantry for Operations concept proposed a mobile, self-deployable lunar gantry for payload handling and lunar base-camp operations. It uses inflatable air-beam structural elements and tendon supports, similar to technologies developed for HIAD, to reduce structural mass and launch volume. The scalable concept ranges from CLPS-sized payloads to large habitation modules.
