this rover is huge and what up with the speed? can we a least put some pony power if horse power is too much .. i love all this stuff is really cool and educational but speed is what makes all the differences in almost everything . keep up the good work ..
@toocoolforu Interesting, looks like they should be using ERW patent claims to replace their weak wheels. These wheels will not offer the ERW deweighting effect, less soil penetration, advantage for uphill levering. Less getting stuck! Highly curved segmented nano carbon hoops "the Bow", Kevlar spans the "Strings". New ERW wheels will easily out perform dinosaur spoke wheels. Check out ERW on youtube!
@toocoolforu Pat #5 Bicycle tech. ERW will extend your range even at 3 mph. Climbs hills covered with soft materials. Efficiency rolling on hard surfaces yet allows for paddles off the curved hoop for traction while sinking in on soft surfaces. If you do not want to spend weeks stuck in a bad spot, even in a position that could limit solar gain why not consider a "lighter wt." superior wheel? "Free" test ERW? Just say the word... YES. After all your not launching tomorrow.
1:07, what was that laugh, on the right? What was on his mind? I wonder how they look like beneath their mask, they look like doctors. btw, I clapped also.
The wheels are looking no good , but you did test them a lot I think.
The kind of Rims and the open wheel looking like.. will not go far in
rocky sand and get suck and messed up.
I´ m more impressed by the wheels really work for sand-rocks-storm missions, instead of all the other technical and physical solutions that was made for this mission.
Great work and go on , you are all the only ones can make mankind survive in comic nature.
wow I always (for some reason) thought these rovers were smaller. There freaking huge..the crane for this one used for decent must be the size of a truck lol.
@diminatadeazi Exactly, they must not send life on Mars, it's a scientific playground. Otherwise if we find life there we'll always wonder if we sent it there. They not only dress like this next to the rover. The rover has to be decontaminated just before they seal it, so nothing can live.
@sudoLinux666 We had wrongly assumed that rover would have solar assist to increase the 12.4 mile two yr. travel goal. ERW highly curved composite bow flexing hoop , Kevlar spans "bow strings" attaching directly to motors would provide "tunable", more mass impact protection on landing. Additional wt. of solar pannels would be allowed because of the "sprung from the top" of hoop "deweighting effect". With so much at stake here a little reengineering could go a "long way", pun intended. DELAY!
If these are the intended wheels for the landing it seems to me that perhaps they could use more flutes say of a couple of inches, to get a good grip on the dry friable sand. They already have Spirit stuck permanantly in a sand drift on Mars - certainly do not want a repeat performance do we ?
@Mueiwark - That's a good question -- I don't know the answer to that! I know each wheel is individually motorized; they all operate very similarly to the Spirit and Opportunity rovers. One thing to remember, though, is that Spirit, Opportunity (and Sojourner, for that matter) far exceeded their lifetime specs -- and a a free-rotation wheel wasn't in the design requirements. Fortunately, with the RTG, there will be enough power to compensate for at least one or two locked wheels.
@voron27 - remember that it takes 20 minutes on average for a signal to get back from Mars -- if the rover is speeding along and passes by a really interesting crater or boulder that scientists want to study, it would take 20 minutes for the pictures to get back to Earth, a bit of time for the scientists to study those pictures, and another 20 minutes for the scientists for the command "STOP!" to get back to the rover... by then the rover would be long past.
I've seen much more weird stuff of the official technology spectrum as a whole (robotics, exoskeletons etc), but watching all these scientists working on something they are just going to send to another planet is just pure awe.
@flopez425 - all the Mars rovers are slow -- they need to be because they're remote-controlling these things with a 20-minute light distance from Mars to Earth. They can't jump the gun and have it barreling off into the Martian deserts at 75 mph because if it tumbled into a crater, they wouldn't know about it for 20 minutes. It's a pretty expensive piece of machinery, so they will be careful and go slow.
@qUiiCkScOpMoNtAgEr - Yes, it's controlled remotely from the ground by a program. As with the current Mars rovers, Curiosity will send stereo pictures of its surroundings back to Earth so navigators can build a 3D model of the terrain. Based on the images, engineers will create a daily driving program to send back up to the rover. Later, as the mission progresses, they will allow the rover to drive more autonomously.
@dinmagic - understandable... since 1988, the following Mars missions have been lost and/or destroyed: Phobos 1 (1988), Phobos 2 (1989), Mars Observer (1993), Mars '96 (1996), Mars Climate Orbiter (1999), Mars Polar Lander (1999) and Beagle 2 (2003).
@djxatlanta the reason being would be to be able to better maneuver the rover and bring it faster to safety if a storms happens to hit it. Which could mean the end of the multi-million dollars rover.
@Raindarsus - Both Spirit and Opportunity (smaller rovers) and the Viking landers weathered and survived many direct hits from Martian dust storms. In the case of the rovers, the worst possible effect was dust deposition on the rovers' solar arrays, which were the rovers' only source of power. The much larger (and nuclear-powered) Curiosity rover will not be affected by dust storms, so there's no need to be concerned. And as far as the overall speed, this is a marathon, not a sprint. ;-)
