Opportunity is dead.
That's the spirit!Maybe on the next rover NASA will install a Sunsetter Retractable Awning to help keep the dust off the solar panels.![]()
Oh, wait, Spirit is dead too.That's just great. First we lost Hope, then no Job, and now this.

I disagree. Getting it to the surface without the Martians shooting it down is an accomplishment.No accomplishments in 15 years. who cares?
btw, taking pics and probing dirt aren't accomplishments.
Went to a JPL panel at comicon a few years ago. One story was that NASA wouldn't let them put a JPL sticker on the probe, so instead they configured the treads to spell out "JPL" in morse code as they moved. NASA didn't find out until it started driving around. I got a chuckle from that.
RIP Opportunity.
