This is probably worth a look! Things I noticed:
- Can see that the tire has a hole in it. Some interesting material science considerations there. Maybe make it metal next time? Although compliant materials, have likely better traction.
- You can see some sort of conglemerate/sandstone rocks nearby. Probably telling about history of mars. Compaction? Fluid? Did it ever get exposed to lava, or a fluid flow to make this rock?
- Dust accumulation on curiousity... it's definitely been in some weather events.
- Aruco Fiducials all over the rover for camera calibration - cool! I wish I knew the dimensions of those markers.
- It's also interesting that kapton tape is just all over the wire bundles without any additional protection!
