The Little Rover that could
Don't know about you all.. but I'm amazed that those rovers we sent to Mars.. just keep on Truckin' Originally designed to last a couple of months and travel a few hundred yards.. They've now lasted almost 3 years and have both traveled for miles, taking pictures of the Martian Landscape.

I'm pretty amazed as well Bob. I check in to their website every couple of months to see if they are still truckin'. I think "Scotty" must have been the chief engineer on this one. Whoever it was, I hope he/she got a raise!
