Wow!  

An accurate picture of Sojourner!

(Yes, it came correctly)


If anybody wants a short ASCII summary of the suspension, I did do
the online suspension plans....



I guess I'l have a go at a few sig-sized (4 lines) ones:

Perspective view:

    /;;;;;;;;;|;;;;/
   /;;;;;;;;;;|;;;/
    "|_.-'"-,._|/ 
    (*)   (*)  (*)
uhh....  It isn't that good.  But is IS only 4 lines!!!


Side view:

          |
  ________|____
  o=|,"--,._ |*    
  (*)  (*)  (*)    ,;::.       ,;:"::.    ,.      ,;:.     ,;:;,


Hmm....

Let's deploy the APXS:
              |
      ________|____
    ,.==|,"--,._ |*    
 ,;:O,(*)  (*)  (*)    ,;::.       ,;:"::.    ,.      ,;:.    

NOTE:  For those who were wondering, the thing always shown on the
back of the rover is the Alpha-Proton X-ray Spectrometer, APXS, which
give an elemental breakdown of the object in question.


You can use any of them, just make sure you put RG next to it.




I wonder whether anybody wants to make an ASCII rover animation.....
