JPL's Mars Rover, Spirit, is stuck in the dirt

The JPL Mars Rover named "Spirit" has been stuck in the dirt for about a month now.   JPL is trying to determine the best way to drive the rover out of its rut by using a duplicate Rover here on Earth with a soil that is consistent with that of Mars.  Hopefully Spirit will be back on its way again some time soon!
