Storyboard Description
The following test scenarios depict the servicing of a Mars Vehicle after it has traversed a rocky terrain, experienced a damaged wheel, and become immobilized as a result. This allows the user to experience a Mars ground-mission scenario, where they are required to free the vehicle, perform inspections, and fix a damaged wheel. This scenario is relevant on Mars due to the type of terrain. It should be noted that NASA's Spirit rover got stuck in a sand trap on Mars, leading to the end of the mission.

Our scenarios are dived into three sets:

Set #1 represents the astronaut detecting a wheel being stuck and trying to fix it using tools available aboard the vehicle.
Set #2 represents how the astronaut unstuck the vehicle and inspected the wheels for damage. If damage is detected, the astronaut begins maintenance on the affected wheel.
Set #3 represents how the astronaut finishes the Mars vehicle repair. The astronaut installs the new wheel modules, records the maintenance, and is ready to continue the mission.
