“After the lunar landings, the Mars Rover program has been the most successful to date.”
Yup. I hope it survives, but it`s power levels are even lower than they were during the last big dust storm. And it`s so close to making it`s 5th anniversary. I`m especially fond of the Spirit rover because it landed at a higher latitude than Opportunity. Getting less sunlight than Opportunity, it`s had a tougher road to hoe to survive.
amazing it has lasted this long..
That other piece expired officially , the Mars Phoenix Lander thingy,, that was a quick pop.. pooof. like Beagle2 almost .. at least it scooped and scanned some stuff before it croaked.. it lasted 2 months longer than they thought it woudl..
