Three generations of Mars rovers
This grouping of two test rovers and a flight spare provides a graphic comparison of three generations of Mars rovers developed at NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. The setting is JPLs Mars Yard testing area.
Front and center is the flight spare for the first Mars rover, Sojourner, which landed on Mars in 1997 as part of the Mars Pathfinder Project. On the left is a Mars Exploration Rover Project test rover that is a working sibling to Spirit and Opportunity, which landed on Mars in 2004. On the right is a Mars Science Laboratory test rover the size of that projects Mars rover, Curiosity, which is on course for landing on Mars in August 2012

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three generations of Mars rovers, offering a striking visual comparison. Set in NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Mars Yard testing area, the image captures the essence of innovation and exploration. At the forefront stands the flight spare for Sojourner, the first-ever Mars rover that successfully landed on the red planet in 1997 as part of the groundbreaking Mars Pathfinder Project. Its presence symbolizes a significant milestone in space exploration history. On the left side of the frame stands a test rover from the Mars Exploration Rover Project, closely related to Spirit and Opportunity. These remarkable machines touched down on Mars in 2004 and embarked on an extraordinary scientific journey that expanded our understanding of this enigmatic planet. Finally, positioned on the right is a test rover from NASA's ambitious Mars Science Laboratory project. This colossal machine mirrors Curiosity, its counterpart set to land on Mars in August 2012. With its advanced technology and state-of-the-art instruments, Curiosity promises to unravel even more mysteries about our neighboring planet. The photograph beautifully captures these robotic spacecraft against a backdrop of barren Martian terrain. The mechanical arms protruding from each rover highlight their ability to study rocks and conduct experiments remotely through telerobotics—a testament to human ingenuity pushing boundaries beyond Earth. In summary, this mesmerizing image encapsulates decades of research, technological advancements, and mankind's unwavering curiosity about our celestial neighbor—Mars.
