On February 13, 2019, NASA tweeted out a sad message:
To the robot who turned 90 days into 15 years of exploration: You were, and are, the Opportunity of a lifetime. Rest well, rover. Your mission is complete.
It’s strange to get choked up a little saying these words. To feel sad about a robot on another planet.
But I’m guessing you feel the same way. And today I wanted to look back at the history of the Mars Exploration Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity. To take you through their creation, launch to Mars, the amazing discoveries they made, and of course, how they finally died.
