Opportunity: it's not a rover, it's a damn energizer bunny.

Designed to last 90 days and travel 2/3 miles, it is now 7 years old, has gone 13 miles, and is making discoveries in areas the NEXT Mars mission isn't even prepared to tackle. If I had a hat on, I'd take it off to the little rover that could.

I teared up a little when I heard about the little rover, I freely confess.

It's not just me? I feel like such a geek getting emotional over a robot, but I do love that little rover.
