Andrew Mishkin, a senior systems engineer at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and a leader of NASA's robotic program, delivers an insider's look at the Mars Pathfinder probe that electrified the world's imagination. 122 million miles away from her controllers, a sophisticated robot smaller than a microwave oven did what had never been done before-explore the rocky, red terrain of Mars.

Includes Dedication; The Solar System and Mars; Preface; List of the Rover Team; Prologue; Epilogue; Glossary; Dramatis Personae; Acknowledgments; Index and Photographic Credits. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "From Andrew Mishkin, a senior systems engineer at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and a leader of NASA's robotic program, comes an insider's look at the most fascinating and audacious space project to date - the Mars Pathfinder probe that electrified the world's imagination. Far out of reach of her human creators - one hundred twenty-two million miles from home - a sophisticated, thinking robot smaller than a microwave oven crept among the rocks of an alien landscape. Six-wheeled Sojourner was doing what had never been done before - exploring the rough, red terrain of Mars. Soon, she would beam spectacular pictures of her one-of-a-kind travels back to Earth. And millions of people would be captivated. Now, with the touch of an expert thriller writer, Sojourner operations team leader Andrew Mishkin tells the inside, human story of the Mars Pathfinder team's feverish efforts to build a self-guided, off-roading robot to explore the surface of the Red Planet. With witty, compelling anecdotes, he describes the clash of temperamental geniuses, the invention of a new work ethic, the turf wars, the chewing-gum solutions to high-tech problems, the controlled chaos behind the strangely beautiful creation of an artificial intelligence - and the exhilaration of inaugurating the next great age of space exploration." - from the inner front jacket flap.
