Imagine if this were built with tech from today. It would be non-functional right after the warranty.
Thanks, Uncle Facebook.
Thankfully, NASA is non-profit so they won't ever do that.
They don't manufacture their equipment.
They don't, but they manage the people that do and pay for it
I believe they still make the probes and rovers.
Shrug, Opportunity is much newer and still lasted about a thousand times longer than its design length.
But it’s got 70 terabits of storage! We closed over 1700 issues on this thing! My god we must have spent 13 billion on it so far!
How can it be failing? I mean just … just … look at the numbers!
