Abstract
The article discusses the issues of providing full-scale testing of machines and spacecraft. The authors consider the surface of a cosmic body and propose the creation of an analogue of the regolith of the Moon and Mars. It is noted that it is necessary to observe not only the physicochemical and granulometric composition of the analogue, but also its electromagnetic charge, which will allow testing robotic systems more fully. Conclusions and description of the process of regolith creation and its properties are given.

Key words
Robotic system, space, regolith, electromagnetic properties, physical modeling.
