Mars Rover Team Investigating Spirits Front Wheel

Mars Rover Team Investigating Spirits Front Wheel

Spirit's mission team continues to investigate problems with the rover's right-front wheel. They have conducted a diagnostic test at a different temperature, but the result continues to indicate the wheel's circuit remains open, meaning it is inoperative.
At the same time, team members are conducting experiments with a rover duplicate at Jet Propulsion Laboratory to understand the new characteristics of five-wheel driving.
