Below is a list of websites that have been useful during the research process. Along with my ask-an-expert resource, I have been delighted that a number of my original questions have been answered. However, those answers have peaked an interest in other areas, such as:
~What is the Rover made of?
~Long term goals of the program?
~Have aliens been seen during the exploration phase of the Mars rover?
~How do you become in charge or the driver of the Mars Rover.
Websites and books below have helped me a great deal during this project.
