Obviously this is yet another sign of Spirit's ever advancing sols. It is turning into a dirty old rover.

What I find puzzling is how a Mars rover would know enough about a piece of human anatomy it has presumably never seen to be able to draw one. huh.gif

It kind of makes you wonder what it was doing during those long lonely nights back on Earth before liftoff when its human minders thought it was safely locked away.

From the way Steve Squyres nearly cried when he saw Oppy in the MRO image of the Victoria area, one might wonder just *how* close Steve was to his creations before they left for Mars... blink.gif smile.gif biggrin.gif
