I still don't get why they gave it the same name as the current MER
already on Mars.

Reminds me of that Bob Newhart series on TV (the 2nd one):

"Hi, my name is Larry and this is my brother Daryll and that one is my
other brother Daryll."


Huh? The MERs are named Spirit and Opportunity.

Oops!

Yup. Brain gears stripped. Recalled this later this AM. You caught me before I

Oh well. I have to learn not to post until I finish my morning coffee....
