Two stereo cameras at the top and at the bottom of the rover’s mast – NavCam and LocCam – allow the GTM to ‘see’ in three dimensions and identify the rocks and slopes ahead. The cameras guide the rover through safe paths and help avoid hazards.
Once the rover is on the move, two more sets of cameras – PanCam and CLUPI – come into play to get a whole picture of the site with high resolution imaging. These rover ‘eyes’ send panoramic and close-up images of the terrain to the operators at the Rover Operations Control Centre (ROCC).
The images are essential to map the geological context and to help the scientists decide where the rover should stop and survey the surface in more detail.

The T3 was Rover's third attempt at a turbine powered car. The four wheel drive chassis incorporates a rear mounted 2S/100 turbine which rotates up to 52,000 RPM. The T3 was a perfectly usable road car, although an average MPG of 13 MPG would have made it an impractical production car.

Not very happy with this one... but I'll be very busy IRL for a few days, so I have to upload some Rovers I've made at the beginning of February, which are not the best.
I always need some time to "heat" my creativity...
I hope to have the time to make better things soon. Hope you'll like it anyway ;-)
This is one of the fastest rovers that have been made by FS Enterprises. The drivers nicknamed this little unipersonal vehicle as "Scarab" by its size and rounded form.

A shot of the day and another random car find , same house that had the Triumph Vitesse , the two VW Beetles , and the old Merc .
This time there is a Rover P4 or R90 parked in the front garden , but this is about the only angle I can get a shot even though it is through the the tree branches .
The Rover P4 series is a group of mid-size luxury saloon cars produced by the Rover Company from 1949 until 1964. They were designed by Gordon Bashford.
Their P4 designation is factory terminology for this group of cars and was not in day-to-day use by ordinary owners who would have used the appropriate consumer designations for their models such as Rover 90 or Rover 100.
Production began in 1949 with the 6-cylinder 2.1-litre Rover 75. Four years later a 2-litre 4-cylinder Rover 60 was brought to the market to fit below the 75 and a 2.6-litre 6-cylinder Rover 90 to top the three-car range. Several variations followed.
These cars are very much part of British culture and became known as the 'Auntie' Rovers. They were driven by royalty including Grace Kelly and King Hussein of Jordan whose first ever car was a 1952 75.
The P4 series was supplemented in September 1958 by a new conservatively shaped Rover 3-litre P5 but the P4 series stayed in production until 1964 and their replacement by the Rover 2000.
