My first personal reaction is that it's maybe not surprising since Mars gets beaten up a lot by impacts. |
The good news is that it's happened again in the same fashion as it did some 200 sols ago. And that may help us determine its cause. |
There's going to be quite a period of mourning once we lose one, just one. We know these creatures, these robotic creatures on Mars, pretty well now. It is going to take some digesting to get used to them not being there everyday. |
We had a little string of bad luck and some hiccups here and there. |
