It's encouraging to see officialy mentioned words like "Partway to 'Victoria' "...
 Maybe there's still a chance to get there...I surelly hope so!

Holy Cow! Let's calm down. These guys have done a fantasitic job of get great science out of these two vehicles. Now you guys know better than them how serious the situation is?
I don't think so. We only have the least bit of knowledge of what is going on. They are highly trained professionals. They are seasoned. They have demonstrated the capability to make the hard choices and make them correctly. I'm behind them 100 percent. Don't you folks have any loyalty to the team? You know they read this site. (Or at least hope they do.) I for one appreciate all the great work and believe they are doing the right thing. ed Does anyone care the a great discovery may sit at Opportunity's feet. |

So far they have done exactly what I would have expected and hoped they would do in a situation like this. The IDD is a very important piece of the rover, especially on Oppy given such fine layering and that the RAT still works. The top priorities right now must be to: 1) make sure they don't make the problem worse - driving without the arm properly stowed could do that. 2) Find the problem and identify the best solution - fix it, try to extend it into a useful position, try and stow it. Only then can we get on with other things like driving. -------------------- |
