If it were SpiritRover, I'd be wondering if she weren't just playing... http://www.livejournal.com/users/spiritrover

But I just checked out Opportunitygrrl's blog, and here's what she has to say about her current predicament:

Okay, so my driving isn't going so great lately. First I had a little wheel problem, and then I kinda got stuck. I'm sure that I can get out,so I am not panicking. Definitely not panicking. But until I can get some good advice from the guys on the ground, I'm kinda hanging out here. The scenery is getting a little boring, as if it wasn't boring enough already!! Anyone want to come by and give me a tow?

I just LOVE those gals! Amazing that it's been a year and a half, eh?

Hmm... If a human was on Mars and rover was stuck maybe the human would have maybe pushed the rover off the dune..

First rule of getting trapped in a sand dune is not get trapped.

What a shame. So far away from home and they probably don't have AAA coverage.

Eric the Viking Kitty re-enacts the valiant struggle of the lander Opportunity in its attempt to exit the killer sand dune.

Seriesly, though, these little critters have done great so far and are a credit to the program.

They are duplicating the same problem here on Earth to figure out a solution. Just like when a dune buggy gets stuck in sand. Go in reverse, go forward, reverse forward reverse forward....

Too bad you can't get a civilian tow service from Earth, and too bad it can't "jump" out of the sand :)

Well, if there's wind on Mars, perhaps those solar panels could be raised to function as sails.
