Spirit, a rover on Mars, drove 19.21 meters to record the longest 5-wheel drive to date. Spirit has been averaging 350 watt-hours per Martian day. Spirit is currently located 15 meters from a field of boulders that are under scientific investigation.
"Spirit began each Martian day by measuring atmospheric dust with the panoramic camera, checking for drift (changes with time) in the miniature thermal emission spectrometer, and surveying the sky and ground with the miniature thermal emission spectrometer."
