They are getting a lot out of this Rover.

Researchers suggest Victorian-era people more intelligent modern-day counterparts

Victorians might have been. They didn't have all the tech conveniences and had to think for themselves.

Could be harebrained as Lowell and the Martian Canals.
BTW - those canals were originally named by an Italian astronomer using the word canali. That meant channel rather than the cognate canal.

Hmm .. reaction time = intelligence

That would mean that jock who's so hot on the sports field but can't even spell his name is actually a frickin' genius while Stephen Hawking's been fooling everyone as he's clearly a moron

Can't help thinking that one needs a tad more thought ..

Plus, who knew the Victorians could measure reaction times so accurately!

The world record is still held by the Soviet Union's lunar rover. The Mars rover still has not passed that.

They used different tests over the years, so there is already a big flaw in the results. You need to test them the same way or at least show that the methods use to test reaction time will yield the same results.
