Instead, this plucky little solar-powered explorer defied every expectation, outlasting its warranty by a staggering factor of 55, roaming the Red Planet for nearly 15 Earth years (5,498 days / 5,352 sols). It traversed over 45 kilometers (28 miles), survived brutal dust storms, climbed crater rims, and delivered groundbreaking discoveries: definitive evidence of past liquid water, minerals formed in water, and hints that parts of ancient Mars could have supported microbial life.But in June 2018, a massive planet-encircling dust storm engulfed Mars, blocking sunlight for months and starving Oppy's solar ...
