Space Robots and Rovers

Some of the most interesting robots we learned about were the Mars Rovers and other space robots. We watched this video from the library and found it fascinating.

We liked this book, too.

This page lets you experiment with controlling a robot vehicle remotely. When you try to control one on the moon, there's a delay, and it makes it really tricky!


Here are some awesome pictures taken by the Curiosity rover.


And we couldn't believe that Curiosity has even found evidence of brine on Mars!
The children made their own rovers out of Lego. They were quite complicated! :)
Junie made one too. :)
