QUOTE (dot.dk @ Feb 21 2005, 03:20 PM) But are they planning to drive both forward and backward on these long traverses? To put an even load onto the drive mechanism. Yes, it's a standard procedure now to do that, for both Spirit and Opportunity. I don't know the distance though at which point they switch, or what other criteria is used to determine the "ok stop, let's do 180 and drive the other way now"... |
