I'm interested in compiling a list of the planetary rover projects
(government, industry, and academic) that are currently active.  I'm
familiar with the efforts at JPL (Miller/Wilcox), CMU (Ambler), RPI
(CIRSSE), and MIT (Brooks), and I would be interested in hearing about
any other ongoing research.

I'm interested in references to any papers (or people) connected with
the following groups:

	1) Martin-Marietta

I saw their rover featured in Aviation Week.  Does anyone know if
they've published anything?

	2) NASA Ames Research Center

I've heard (second-hand) that there is some rover research being
conducted here.  Does anyone have the details?

	3) Rockwell

I just saw a mention of a Rockwell microrover plan in the current
issue of Ad Astra.  I'm curious whether this is just a design or if
actual robots and/or simulations have been buit.

	4) Any others I've missed

If there is sufficient interest, I will post the completed list.

				Thanks in advance,
