M贸nica Grajeda NASA鈥檚 Mars Rover might have captured headlines, but a new bot deployed in Greenland might be doing even more important work. NASA鈥檚 newest scientific rover, a robot known as GROVER, is on its way to Greenland for over a month of testing on the ice-covered country鈥檚 highest elevations. GROVER, which stands for both Greenland Rover and Goddard Remotely Operated Vehicle for Exploration and Research, is powered by the sun and will help scientists better understand changes in the quickly-shrinking ice sheet.
