The surface was tilted to 25 degrees, and a test rover climbed it. If portions of the route to the outcrop turn out to be between 25 and 30 degrees, the team plans to proceed slowly and use Opportunity to assess the amount of traction the rover is getting.
since gravity there is some what lighter. the amount of traction-al friction will be less. so what the test vehicle dose will not count for one that weighs 1/3 less.
