In case there was any doubt, the engineers at JPL did an amazing job: Just look at how the Mars
Curiosity Rover deals with the red planet's bumpy terrain in this time-lapse GIF, taken from the Left
Navcam pointed down at the wheels in motion.
It may be suspension, but it's suspension on the world's most advanced RC car the size of a SUV, dropped
onto another freakin planet using a sky-crane, controlled from Earth, loaded with high-tech scientific
equipment & cameras that beams its gathered information and photos back to our planet ( photos, mind
you that are of much better quality than those taken by the Chinese rover on the moon ).
Interested .....
Is amazing how dust doesn't stick in the wheels .... This is because in the planet Mars, no oxygen.
