1. A method for forming a shadow pattern on a planetary or lunar surface, the method executable by at least one processor and memory, comprising: providing a rough terrain vehicle having a plurality of wheels capable of imparting to the planetary or lunar surface shadow shaping components to produce a shadow pattern capable of being seen from a distance, wherein the plurality of wheels include a series of wheels in elongated alignment; andcontrolling, by the at least one processor, the rough terrain vehicle to produce a pre-designed pattern in the planetary or lunar surface, viewable from a distance when sunlight hits the shadow shaping components from an angle, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a plurality of angled voids. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein controlling the rough terrain vehicle comprises remotely controlling the rough terrain vehicle by controlling the at least one processor remotely. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein controlling the rough terrain vehicle comprises using programmed autonomy, wherein the rough terrain vehicle follows a pre-programmed path executable by the at least one processor. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of wheels are interspersed to provide the greatest width of coverage of the planetary or lunar surface. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein a device is dragged behind the vehicle to create the shadow shaping components. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the shadow shaping components comprise a large shadow area and a small highlight area within a background of the planetary surface where an overall effect is significantly darker than the background. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the shadow shaping components comprise a surface that appears lighter than a background of the planetary surface based on receipt of more sunlight at a direct angle with respect to a viewing angle. 8. A method for forming a shadow pattern on a planetary or lunar surface, the method executable by at least one processor and memory, comprising: providing a rough terrain vehicle having at least two wheels capable of imparting to the planetary or lunar surface shadow shaping components, including a large shadow area and a small highlight area within a background of the planetary surface that create a joint area that is significantly darker than the background and that is viewable from a distance; andcontrolling, with the at least one processor, the rough terrain vehicle to produce a pre-designed pattern in the planetary or lunar surface, viewable from a distance when sunlight hits the shadow shaping components from an angle, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a grey-scaled area of the features to be viewed from a distance. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the at least two wheels comprises at least three wheels, two outer wheels and a wheel positioned in between and offset from the two outer wheels, and wherein the pre-designed pattern is symmetrical. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein controlling the rough terrain vehicle comprises remotely controlling the rough terrain vehicle by controlling the at least one processor with at least one computer. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises an outline of features to be viewed from a distance. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a solid darkened area of the features to be viewed from a distance. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein the rough terrain vehicle imparts the pre-designed pattern to the planetary surface through the use of treads of the at least two wheels. 14. The method of claim 8, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a crosswise void created by lateral movement of the rough terrain vehicle. 15. The method of claim 8, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a longwise void created by lateral movement of the rough terrain vehicle. 16. The method of claim 8, wherein the at least two wheels each include a series of wheels in general elongated alignment, wherein the pre-designed pattern comprises a plurality of angled voids. 17. The method of claim 8, wherein the at least two wheels are arranged in an elongated cylinder for wider coverage across the planetary surface. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein each of at least some of the at least two wheels of the elongated cylinder are capable of individual articulation independent of each other. 19. The method of claim 8, wherein controlling the rough terrain vehicle comprises using programmed autonomy, wherein the rough terrain vehicle follows a pre-programmed path executable by the at least one processor. 20. The method of claim 8, further comprising: cleaning planetary dust from treads of the at least two wheels with brushes installed in front of the wheels located at the front of the rough terrain vehicle. 21. A method for forming a shadow pattern on a planetary or lunar surface, the method executable by at least one processor and memory, comprising: providing a rough terrain vehicle having at least two wheels capable of imparting to the planetary or lunar surface shadow shaping components, including a large shadow area and a small highlight area, the small highlight area appearing lighter than a background of the planetary surface based on receipt of more sunlight at a direct angle with respect to a viewing angle, wherein the at least two wheels are arranged in an elongated cylinder for wider coverage across the planetary surface; andcontrolling, with the at least one processor, the rough terrain vehicle to produce a pre-designed pattern in the planetary or lunar surface, viewable from a distance when sunlight hits the shadow shaping components from one or more angles.
