Wheeling on Mars

What would I need to go wheeling on mars? I've been checking out all the mars rover pics and the terrrain looks like it would be great for wheeling! Any ideas about the low levels of O2 and the radiation?

Here is my conception of a yota on mars - good luck on finding a place to refuel

Not a bad photochop, good work.

You'd need some other fuel than petrol. Maybe a photosynthetic skin on the Runner to produce energy and some mitochondrial fuel cells to use that energy.

I'VE GOT IT!



You could leave the runner and go backpacking!

That looks just like the country I wheel in Eastern Oregon and NW Nevada! It's a lot closer than Mars but sometimes I have just as much trouble finding fuel...Especially in NW Nevada.
