The Rover Gets Strong-Armed

In this photo, two engineers from NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Alliance Spacesystems are standing in a white room on either side of the Mars Science Laboratory rover's robotic arm. They are dressed in white 'bunny suits,' and are covered from head to toe wearing white face masks to protect the equipment. The arm is bent at the 'elbow' and raised high in the air about two feet higher than the engineer on the left. The engineer on the right holds a control box that maneuvers the arm for testing.
