Mars Rovers Still Kicking Martian Butt!

Posted by geeknews at 5:12 AM on September 5, 2005

Did you forget we have two Rovers still in real good shape collecting science on Mars. With Spirit sitting on top of a hill it has a new vantage point to take pictures. Opportunity had a computer glitch a few days ago but otherwise is about to resume work. Simply amazing we are at about sol 570 if I remember correctly the warranty has been expired for about 500 days but these two machines keep on collecting science. [NASA - JPL]

BTW we are not in Kansas anymore!
