Ballooning quickly, the storm blanketed a quarter of the planet by June 12. By June 19, the storm was officially a “planet-encircling dust event”—less precisely called a \"global\" dust storm, though these storms never truly cover the entire globe of Mars. Because the dust blocks out the sunlight Opportunity’s solar panels need to charge its batteries, scientists had to suspend science activities. As of July 18, no response has been received from Opportunity since June 10. Meanwhile, the nuclear-powered Curiosity rover is largely immune to the darkened skies, allowing it to continue collecting data.Scientists observing the event say that, as of July 23, 2018, more dust is falling out than is being raised into the planet's thin air. That means the event has reached its decay phase. Once the dust settles, it will likely form a fine film only a few tens of microns thick—about the width of a human hair. This means Opportunity’s solar panels may be covered by a fine film of dust. That could delay a recovery of the rover as it gathers energy to recharge its batters. Opportunity will wake up again once it gets enough sunlight to charge its batteries, at which point it will automatically try to phone home—which scientists are cautiously optimistic will happen. || ", "hits": 275 }, { "id": 4414, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4414/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2016-03-21T12:30:00-04:00", "title": "The Mars Fleet", "description": "A fleet of landers, rovers, and orbiters is exploring the Red Planet, providing mission controllers with a remote presence on Mars.

Every time we feel close to understanding Mars, new discoveries send us straight back to the drawing board.Over the past several decades, spacecraft have shown us that Mars is rocky, cold, and desolate beneath its hazy, pink sky. We've discovered that today's Martian wasteland hints at a formerly volatile world where volcanoes once raged and flash floods rushed over the land.Among our many discoveries about Mars, one stands out above all others: the evidence for past surface water on Mars. Water is key because almost everywhere we find water on Earth, we find life. With our robotic spacecraft, we've found evidence that liquid water once flowed in ancient Martian environments that could have supported microbial life. Armed with that knowledge, we now can seek signs of whether such life actually arose. Is there any evidence of life in the planet's past? If so, could any of these tiny living creatures still exist today? Imagine how exciting it would be to answer, \"Yes!!\" || ", "hits": 59 } ] }
