Found a name!

 Over the Thanksgiving break, +Cristin Finnigan and I had some time in the car to figure out a name for the rover. We came up with, Inspiration. It seems a fitting name since it is inspired by Sojourner and also, hopefully it will be an inspiration to anybody who wants to make something but has no idea how to do it. Because that's what this entire project is about. Going into this project, the only thing I knew about was gluing the acrylic box together. I started taking classes in electronics, did a whole bunch of internet research, met some people, and now this project is really starting to take shape. I still have more electronics to learn and just about everything yet to learn about rocketry and robotics. Hopefully this project will inspire lots of people to just get out there and do whatever they've been wanting to do, no matter how little they know about it. The internet is free and full of generations of knowledge! Dive in there and find your project!

  On another note. Cristin was REALLY awesome and spent a whole bunch of time coming up with this data sheet that contains a lot of bullet points on the project. Click on the pic to view a larger PDF.

It will be added to as the project progresses. Maybe the back side will have an entire "mission  layout" showing what the launching, landing, and driving sequence will look like. Lots more to come. Probably some videos soon too!
