Great long informative article Alan! I'm rooting for NASA to free Spirit soon and it sure sounds like they're doing everything possible to figure out the right method. Our robotic marvels have done some great adventuring on Mars and for far longer than anyone expected. It's nice to see us make robots that aren't warbots but actually do something useful for mankind.

Free Spirit!

I hope that we can get rovers like Spirit and Opportunity on planets within in our star system. It would be interesting to see these used for deep space exploration. We just need to develop an FLT engine to get them there. If someone could get a number of these to the asteroid belt, there could be mining opportunities.

I’m sure there are lots of people just like me trying to figure this out. You know, some wonderful suggestion like using the camera’s robotics’ arm to raise the wheel and let some sand fall under it. I think the bottom line is that even though most of us don’t have a clue, including me, there are a lot of people and companies that do. I would hope that as good as NASA is, they won’t exclude those resources.

I couldn't seem to get the video of the arm to play, so here is an alternate link I found on the JPL website.
