Mission managers are scheduled to discuss Opportunity’s prospects during a teleconference at 1:30 p.m. ET (10:30 a.m. PT) Wednesday. Stay tuned, and listen in.


I set an alarm. I'm fricking pumped to understand 10% of what they say.

They could at least make the simulated views more interesting.

The little guy was only supposed to be working for 90 days. 15 years later, it's going to die. Alone. In the dark.

NASA's fricking brutal.

I was trying to find a gif of Lois Lane suffocating beneath tons of dirt; however, I was ultimately disappointed with the selection available.
