Apelu was curious about technology and its use in space. This is his information report about the Sojourner Mobile Robot


The Sojourner mobile robot is a machine used in space.

The Sojourner mobile robot is a machine with a solar panel on the top of it for energy. It has six wheels and has a box looking body which is made of gold and titanium.

The machine lives on mars to take photos of spacecrafts and rocks. It was made especially from the NASA headquarters to reveal the life around on mars.

The robot has a speed of 04 meters\per min It is powered by a 0.22sqm solar panel comprised of 13 strings of 18, 5.5mil Gas cells each. The normal driving power requirement for the micro rover is 10W.

Without these modern machines the world wouldn’t have discovered these planets.
There are also three Mars Rover missions planned for the future, including the European ExoMars Rover from ESA, and the American Curiosity and MAX-C Rovers from NASA

hi Apelu

When I read your story it had some good features and some good sentences. I've learn so many things and I hope you've learn something too.
