PASADENA, Calif. -- NASA's Mars rover Spirit, lodged in Martian soil that is causing traction trouble, is taking advantage of the situation by learning more about the Red Planet's environmental history.

"If your rover is going to get bogged down, it's nice to have it be at a location so scientifically interesting."

That's like running out of your boss' office while doing his secretary only to chat up his wife on the way out.

Cool story.
