The little rover that could.

Earlier I mentioned, that our little rover Opportunity on the Martian surface had freed itself from a sand dune it was stuck in on the Red Planet. Now JPL has released a video of robot extracting itself, watch it here (it's a quicktime video). As you watch it, remember, THIS IS HAPPENING ON MARS. Boggle!

Being a good 'ole Southern boy, I can't help but thinking "YEE HAW!" as I watch the wheels spin and bury themselves in the sand then grind their way out.

This gives way to thoughts -

I think I can,
I think I can,
I think I can. . .

Woo Hoo, have a GREAT DAY! Don't forget to read about "tiny penquins' legs" below.
