Poor little Mars Rover, Spirit, which landed 6 years ago, is stuck in the sand, which chances of it getting, out minimal now.
Opportunity is still zooming along collecting data.
I did read somewhere that if this is the case there is still some important work it can, something about the atmosphere iirc that can only be done if the rover stays put! And since they were supposed to be mobile they didn't want to spare the time. Still, it is sad news.
