I went to JPL yesterday to see them put the mobility model for MSL through its paces. It is HUGE!
Lots of pictures and video posted at http://www.planetary.org/blog/article/00001010/ I have the pictures (but not the video) at twice the resolution if anyone needs them for artistic purposes. --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

From the way the shadows in the thumbnail look, I thought Emily got to ride on the MSL and dangle her feet overboard Not that JPL is getting into the hay ride business anytime soon. And full chutzpah points for those "custom treads." If only it were flight hardware.... -------------------- Lyford Rome
