<h3>Communications</h3>

Sojourner is unique among the 4 rovers to successfully deploy on Mars in that it required
|

it's lander to stay in communication with Earth. The rover was not equipped with a high gain

antenna, which is required in order to communicate with Earth over large distances.

<p class="ml-4 ml-sm-3">

This limitation forced the rover to stay within a certain range of the lander, and

throughout it's lifetime on Mars, it never traveled more than a few dozen feet from the
|

lander.

<ul class="ml-3 ml-lg-4">

<h3>Autonomy</h3>
|
||||
<p class="ml-4 ml-sm-3">
|
||||
Sojourner was an important step in Robotics due to the nature of the mission.
|
||||
With such a long distance between Mars and Earth, radio communications took around 14
|
||||
minutes to receive, and then another 14 minutes to send back.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p class="ml-4 ml-sm-3">
|
||||
As such, human telegraphed movements too slow for the mission, and while complete autopilot
|
||||
is impossible for such a complex mission, the rovers, landers, and spacecraft made by NASA
|
||||
had to be programmer with autopilot.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p class="ml-4 ml-sm-3">
|
||||
To solve this problem, Sojourner, along with every rover to land on Mars, is equipped with
|
||||
software dedicated to autonomously moving the rover across the martian surface.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p class="ml-4 ml-sm-3">
|
||||
While Sojourner was comparatively basic in it's software's autonomy, the software was
|
||||
helpful to operators in visualizing and telegraphing instructions across the rocky terrain
|
||||
of Ares Vallis.
