Re: Mars dust storms suck life out of rovers

AHAHAH, yeah. In a weird way. Not really the mechanical aspect of the team, because most the stuff i was doing is ESD sensitive, and FIRST doesn't really have much stuff that requires you to plug yourself into a grounding port to work with it. But management wise i have already incorporated a lot of stuff. It was the time of my life there. It was really cool. Yeah, we had two RCE's in the testbed, one for the two testbeds that are currently available. I can not really say that nothing from JPL will get incorporated into mechanical stuff my team will do, but that is pending what the team wants. I got some cool pictures of me at the place though that i will always charish. I just emailed the MSL Testbed team that i was a part of for 6 weeks like 20 minutes ago. It was so cool, they were like the dream team. Each person was different and had like their own like awesomely genius like but cool background.

Enough about me though... unless people would like to talk about my experience (I can probably go on for a long time about it).

MER seems to be doing better, which is nice. Can not wait for Opportunity to enter that crater.
