When i saw the ALGORE in mission control the night it landed, i would have bet the farm on a crash and burn. Guess it was out of range of his influence.

Judging by the aborted left-turn tracks, that rover is a natural blonde?

See where they veered to the middle of the track and ran over something white? I think that's the mars rabbit they ran over :^(
