Ad it's a newbie, I would recommend straight crest. If it was advanced or expert a side crest would do

If they make it we should give Nasa their first star and ask them to put our club logo on their web page!

And if they don't they can come and do an ANIT.

If it gets stuck, I wonder if they would send another rover with a winch or a snatch strap...

First you have to see if its wearing an orange T-shirt, then take lots of pictures, then draw straws to decide who will do the recovery. and post as many videos and photos of the event as possible.

No idea. NASA strictly hold their secrets.
For your big interest to type of shovel, Thom, I understand that one way ticket to Mars for you isn't an issue at all
