Solar Powered, m8
...
It is powered by the MIRACLE OF RADIATION
Not a single repeated answer to confirm in here. So how is it powered then?
Radioisotope thermal generator. Its a decaying chunk of plutonium that releases heat which is converted to electricity with thermocouples
Cheers
who took this picture?
Some volunteer from Nevada. What, you actually thought the pictures were real?
>doesn't know NASA has selfie sticks
The missing mechanical arm cut out of the picture at top of the rover.
Maybe its a pic of the clone on jpl
Its a composite, you can see the selfie stick arm where it gets cut off
whys it so dusty? why isnt their sky clear like ours?
what does a clear sky mean? Our sky is blue, not clear. That's just how the Martian sky looks, at night you can see all the stars easy
Mars is covered in extremely fine dust, has 1/3 earth gravity, and is windy
>engineers robot to roam on a sand planet
>doesn't include a brush to clean its solar panels
>robot runs out of photon fuel
Has this happened before?
The wind is enough to blow the dust off.
Spirit no longer runs due to not enough power.
Opportunity amazingly is still running after 12 years.
These twin robots were only suppose to last about 3 months
The whole place is sand, and that means oil! I bet they don't even know what they've got.
A curious mix of sadness and optimism
It runs on an RTG.
The RTGs on the Voyagers are still putting out enough juice to have them functioning and talking to earth. So Curiosity will still be doing SCIENCE!, when Musk shows up on Mars.
