Aimee Hall's class designs and builds Mars rover models
Our names are Bob, Issac, Josh and Tyler. Our rover's mission task was to analyze the atmosphere of Mars. We had many tools to accomplish this. Among these were an air sampler, a Geiger counter, and a thermometer. The rover uses its tank tracks to drive up a mountain to find the contents at the atmosphere at different altitudes.
