See now, if I had designed it, the wheels would be able to rotate to whatever side it landed on, and all the mechanical doohickies would be in a gyroscope, so that no matter which way the outside got flipped, the insides, including the camera, would be right-side up.

Rover - $400 million Rocket - $500 million R&D - $3 billion The look on your face as you make it ride over a rock, tip over and break - Priceless! Actually, I believe the thing is completely autonomous. It would take several minutes for light to reach the rover on Mars and the signal would be so weak and incoherent that it would be useless. It's possible to send pictures because you can take a long time sending them. It's not possible to send a continuous control signal. The problem of not having the rover go belly up is a very difficult problem in artificial intelligence called autonomous motion. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy. All you have to do is relax while plummetting at 120 mph from 10,000' with nothing but some nylon and webbing to save you.
