Mars Rovers - Mobile laboratories on the Red Planet

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Mars rover is an automated motor vehicle which propels itself across the surface of the planet Mars after landing. Rovers have several advantages over stationary landers: they examine more territory, they can be directed to interesting features, they can place themselves in sunny positions to weather winter months and they can advance the knowledge of how to perform very remote robotic vehicle control.
