Another drive today, it seems! Take it easy Scott, these sorts of speeds we'll get dizzy!

Yes, just positioning for the final climb, I think.

Yes, just positioning for the final climb, I think. According to the latest update, more of an unlucky encounter: The drive on Sol 1806 covered about 30 centimeters (1 foot). The rover team had planned a longer drive, but Spirit stopped short, apparently from the right front wheel encountering the partially buried rock visible next to that wheel. |
