DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book describes the most complex machine ever sent to another planet: Curiosity. It is a one-ton robot with two brains, seventeen cameras, six wheels, nuclear power, and a laser beam on its head. No one human understands how all of its systems and instruments work. This essential reference to the Curiosity mission explains the engineering behind every system on the rover, from its rocket-powered jetpack to its radioisotope thermoelectric generator to its fiendishly complex sample handling system. Its lavishly illustrated text explains how all the instruments work -- its cameras, spectrometers, sample-cooking oven, and weather station -- and describes the instruments' abilities and limitations. It tells you how the systems have functioned on Mars, and how scientists and engineers have worked around problems developed on a faraway planet: holey wheels and broken focus lasers. And it explains the grueling mission operations schedule that keeps the rover working day in and day out.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Aphra Behn was a British writer during the Restoration era in the 17th century. Behn was one of the first women in history to earn a writing through living and she would inspire many of the great female authors that followed. Virginia Woolf famously wrote in "A Room of One's Own" that all women should lay flowers on the tomb of Aphra Behn because she earned them the right to speak their minds. The Rover is a two part play that is considered a remake of Thomas Killigrew's play Thomaso, or The Wanderer. The play centers around the adventures of a group of Englishmen traveling in Naples at Carnival time.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In 2003, NASA launched two Mars Exploration Rovers named "Spirit" and "Opportunity" on a voyage of discovery to the Red Planet. Both Rovers had a projected lifetime of just 90 days in which to collect scientific data and photographs. The Rovers excelled in every respect and worked on the Martian surface for many years. This book is the third volume in a series which records the exploration of the Rover "Opportunity". This volume records the period from when Opportunity had arrived at Victoria Crater, it's explorations into the crater and it's departure from Victoria heading for Endeavour Crater. These volumes are created from the sol by sol (day to day) logs provided t us all by the NASA web sites along with the photographs taken by the different cameras on Opportunity.
