NASA Lost A Robot On Mars…

[00:00:00]NASA scientists might have the most stressful job on Earth. One of NASA's Mars rovers got stuck on a rock on a planet [music] over 200 million miles away. Every single command they sent took around 40 minutes just to see if it worked. Imagine trying to fix a robot with the world's slowest internet, and somehow it gets worse. [music] One rover's wheel completely broke on Mars, so NASA literally drove the entire thing [music] backwards for years just to keep it alive. But eventually, the rover got trapped in sand, couldn't charge its solar panels properly, and died alone on Mars. Then, another rover survived almost 15 years on the planet until a massive dust storm blocked out the sun completely. NASA sent over 1,000 messages trying to wake it back up, but it never answered. Its final message was basically, "My battery is low, and it's getting dark." And honestly, the craziest part, NASA [music] thinks they may have already found signs of ancient alien life on Mars, but the US government keeps cutting NASA's [music] funding.
