Mars Rover in 3D

Mars Rover in 3D...must download and install Cult 3-D plugin...looks cool to me, and probably would be fantastic if I had a gamers video system. You can rotate the Rover, and zoom in and out with the use of the mouse buttons.

How's the rover doing on Mars? Any updates? I can't get much info in Singapore, though! Our people are not interested in Mars cos they're more interested in making money.

:D

Back to the topic! Can I know something on the outcome of the expedition? I'm a fan of Mars exploration.

Thanks...

As of a couple or three hours ago, NASA said that they had encountered a small problem realigning the rover to drive off of the lander assy at a different place that it was designed to do, but they are confident that they will have the rover off the lander sometime tomorrow evening/Thursday morning early!!(US Time).

What do you think? Can Spirit accomplish its tasks?

Or do we need to wait for the other rover to arrive and continue the task?

:confused:
