But this is the second time that they have been there via robot. Nothing really new. Anyone know what happened to the other one that they got to work for years?

This is actually the third robot they've sent to mars. They sent Spirit And Opportunity. Opportunity is still working, but last year Spirit succumbed to the harsh Martian winter.

Actually this is the fourth.

Did ya forget the itty bity Pathfinder from 1997?
