Here's hoping that the rover isn't taken down by collapsing wheels
I hope it has many years left but at some point some minor additional wear will push it over the threshold of breaking. Wether its the wheels or the board computer doesn’t make much difference in light of all it has accomplished.
Ouch
C'mon! I'll kick ya!
