Happy Birthday!

The Opportunity Rover has finished its ninth year on Mars.

Just like the government: Come up with a three-month project and it goes on for over nine years.... Just kidding.

It's pretty damn impressive. Still pretty young, compared to Pioneer 6, and the two Voyagers.

  2. Once they got past making mistakes what they learned is pretty impressive in action.

    Some of the pictures are better than art. Go rover, go.

    Eck!
