DickMcMahon 0 #1 January 8, 2004 Does anyone know if the Mars Spirit Rover has audio equipment aboard? It would be interesting to hear the Martian wind, or what their storms sound like. AND ... is the sky colored "red" there? Do Martian skydivers say ... "RED SKIES" to their DZ buddies? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdgregory 0 #4 January 9, 2004 sounds exactly like an earthling wind only they have less fat to flap the cheeks and it isn't as wet since they are not water based Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #5 January 9, 2004 Speaking of sound . . . I was so impressed by the JPL animations, yet so UNimpressed by their use of sound during the animation. Noises in space, all motors sound the same . . . it's amazing to me that they even put them in.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same reason when a large explosion goes off a quarter mile away, the sound is heard instantly. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
