This book describes the most complex machine ever sent to another planet: Curiosity. It is a one-ton robot with two brains, seventeen cameras, six wheels, nuclear power, and a laser beam on its head. No one human understands how all of its systems and instruments work. This essential reference to the Curiosity mission explains the engineering behind every system on the rover, from its rocket-powered jetpack to its radioisotope thermoelectric generator to its fiendishly complex sample handling system. Its lavishly illustrated text explains how all the instruments work -- its cameras, spectrometers, sample-cooking oven, and weather station -- and describes the instruments' abilities and limitations. It tells you how the systems have functioned on Mars, and how scientists and engineers have worked around problems developed on a faraway planet: holey wheels and broken focus lasers. And it explains the grueling mission operations schedule that keeps the rover working day in and day out.

“It is a fascinating read … . Emily does a great job making the book easy to understand … . I think this is a great book and any engineer who develops (or wants to develop) systems should read it. … I think this is the only book that I am aware of that presents all the required engineering elements to design and build a complex robot system. ... For experienced engineers it is also useful to read.” (David Kohanbash, robotsforroboticists.com, February 2, 2022)
Sky & Telescope Planetary ReportBased on interviews with the scientists and engineers who built and now operate the rover
Explains how the rover has actually functioned on Mars, including the wear on its components
Collects a wide variety of otherwise inaccessible information on rover engineering, including corrections to previously published work
Provides a one-of-a-kind reference to a mission that is likely to last for another decade at least, and which will need to onboard numerous scientists and engineers into operational roles
