Awesome, besides being an effective robot tasks it does, I find it amazing design and quality construction to withstand G-forces of takeoff, travel, reentry and landing on Mars. It is certainly a role model is a robot designed to do something and do it! Here we may distinguish between robots and robots for specific tasks or adptativos versatile. :D
The one thing that fascinates me about Curiosity are the wheels. Of all the things they could have used to move over the desert like terrain of Mars - TANK TREADS - LEG CRAWLER COMBINATIONS - BALL WHEELS etc NASA chose a fairly conventional wheel configuration (x 6). I'm guessing those wheels can turn 180 degs to enable the robot to move sideways. I can't wait to see this fantastic robot making it's way up the side of the crater it's in.
I think robotmaker worked on the mars rover
