Opportunity Breaks The 13 Mile Mark Pasadena CA (JPL) Jun 21, 2010 Opportunity is driving again and has now covered 21 kilometers (13 miles) of odometry on Mars.

An investigation of the Mini-TES is ongoing. The PMA has been restored to operation for imaging (not Mini-TES ... more Spirit Catching More Rays Pasadena CA (JPL) Jun 21, 2010 Spirit remains silent at her location called "Troy" on the west side of Home Plate.
