As you may have heard, the Spirit rover on Mars is stuck in a clay-like bit of Martian soil. JPL engineers are hard at work trying to replicate the soil and figure out a way to free the rover. They are also happy to keep us updated on their efforts at a website called Free Spirit. It's fascinating to see both what JPL is doing and how it's using the Web.
