That is some of "the cool stuff" for sure. I doubt they would let me use the rovers, but I kinda want to get an RC truck and drive it around the rover testing grounds. Could make a video of it and tell my family that I got to control and RC truck on Mars. Ha ha

Hehe, well if you want to drive in the sand you better learn some programming ^^
Mostly, though, people don't drive in it but instead program the rover, such as the one seen on the left-hand-side of the image, to try and leave the platform representing the lander and then carry out a few tests or drive a bit around autonomously.
I'm just going to buy an RC truck and when they start driving their rover, I'll race them. It's probable that I would accidentally run into the rover though. Being a space expert, do you think I need to have insurance on the RC? If so, how much coverage would you suggest? :D
