(Ron B. of JPL must be on vacation fro weekly press releases.)
Last weeks JPL press release optimistically reported that
Opportunity's
solar panels were getting enough sunlight to re-charge batteries
again.
For several weeks they unable to reach their "minimal charge" due
to a sand storm.
Just before the storm began NASA gave JPL permission to send
Oppotunity inside Victoria crater, the deepest one to date.
But this will wait until the global sand storm ends. |
