Mars Spirit Rover Hack

But if you're talking about hacking, why go through ground networks? Why not transmit directly to the Spirit from a ground antenna? Do you keep a 75-foot dish in your back yard? * -- * PV something like badgers--something like lizards--and something like corkscrews. |

Very easy, break into JPL and take over the control of Spirit for a while.
Of cours you need some kind of guns, mask and a brown pants. (-: JS "Cotton Spandey" wrote in message ...

They also can just about detect signals from spacecraft en route to Mars. Not sure about signals from the rovers, though. I'll bet some of them will give it a try. Sally |

I really don't think we have to worry about it. After all it's only a matter
of time before a Martian finds it. In a week or two it will be on some Martians coffee table as a conversation pieces, just like the last two projects that disappeared.

"Please, send in every dollar you can to send George to Mars." Likely simple as not many bothered to consider that a risk, I bet. However, you might spend years trying various frequencies and codes, and that would exceed the device's life span many times over, and you would need equipment which I doubt you have to transmit and receive the signals.

news ...speaking of which, the latest announced plans pretty much kill everything except manned missions. While I'd like to see those too, there's a lot of good fundamental science about to be thrown out the window for political ends. Put Bush, Congress, and Senate on the Moon. Then let's see how they feel about the necessary fundamental science to support getting them back. Of course, it would be a darn shame if they couldn't come to a consensus before their oxygen ran out. -- Want SPEWS-filtered and SBL-filtered email? http://www.spamblocked.com/index.html "Mammals are far more intellectually advanced than most people think.

And you would want to do this because?? It would make us Brits feel better about Beagle 2 being stuck on its side at the bottom of a crater, or whatever it is they think has happened to it. :-) That's what happened! Ralsky was relaying his spam through it so Beagle got SPEWSed!!!. -- FF |
