Re: Mars Robot



I have copies of articles from the September 23, 1996 issue of Newsweek
and the January 1997 issue of Astronomy that give some information,
including color pictures of the Mars Pathfinder robot Sojourner. I
haven't checked these out, but you might try http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/mars
or http://mpfwww.jpl.nasa.gov/.

I understand that a NASA spacecraft is to land on Mars this July and it
is carrying a sophisticated robot designed to roam around Mars and
collect whatever it can. Does any one know any details about the design
and capabilities of the robot or where there might be information about
it. Thanks, David Abineri
