    It's not solar like the other rovers. It's nuclear powered similar to the Viking craft from the 70's.

    NASA has been behind the curve for years on Mars. The EUSA (European Space Agency) discovered water on Mars years before NASA admitted it. So hopefully this "SUV is space" will help rebuild NASA's credibility.
