Steve Squyres Terrain Quotations

Driving in that terrain was a challenge with all six wheels. With five wheels, it was a mess.

We can see most of the crater from where we are right now, and we've made the decision that we're going to traverse around it on its western side. We're actually going to start the drive around the crater by going north a little bit ... to get onto terrain that's mostly bedrock ... before we swing west.
