Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — In the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, the Mars Exploration Rover 2 (MER-2) has been installed on the base petal of the lander and the solar arrays have been stowed for flight. The cruise stage is in the background. There are two rovers, identical to each other, and each will land at different regions of Mars. They are designed to cover roughly 110 yards each Martian day over various terrain.
