Opportunity: NASA Rover Completes Mars Mission 

Opportunity, you will always be *in our heart*

*Mission duration* Planned: 90 sols (92.5 days) At End-of-mission: 5351 sols (5498 days) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

The first Mars settlement should be called opportunity

The first city colonized on mars should be called “opportunity”

Once a Mars colony gets set up they need to make 'The Opportunity Run' a thing.

Well traveled, Opportunity!

*Never knew i would cry for a rover*

Petition to name the first city on mars “Opportunity” in the memory of Oppy

Death: It’s time to go. Opportunity: Was i a good boy? Death: No. I’m told you were the best.

Absolutely AMAZING! Well done JPL!

RIP Opportunity Rover, you are gone but will never be forgotten. Someday, we will wake you up again once we get to Mars.

Don't worry Opportunity We will come as soon as possible and we will charge your battery. But for now take care of yourself.

Opportunity has exceeded our expectations and then some. Well done, little rover. Rest In Peace, Opportunity!

I'M NOT CRYING. i'm just... dam it im crying

The little rover that could. I feel ridiculously emotional about this. Rest, little buddy. You were amazing.

3:40 shouldn’t that be Google Mars?

An incredible journey, can't wait for the 2020 rover!

*_when humans land there they should visit opportunity and get it back running_*

Have a good sleep Opportunity. You exceeded everyone's expectations. So long little explorer.

Wait for us Oppy, till we meet again.

The Mars is red, the earth is blue, Good job opportunity And Thank you :)

"My battery is low and it's getting dark."

this made me cry. i'm proud of opportunity, and all the beautiful minds that contributed to it's existence and endurance.

1st Man on Mars: One small step for... Oppy: On your Left.

Press f to pay respects to our fallen hero.

RIP (Rover Indefinitely Perished) Ashes to ashes, Dust storm to dust storm, Solar panel to solar panel. Opportunity.

The Opportunity mission was a magnificent achievement by everyone concerned. Congratulations are pathetically inadequate, but well done to all, and thanks for doing it in my lifetime.

“My batteries are low, and it’s getting dark” The last message of a robotic machine. I’ve never been so emotional over a machine.....just think about it, day 1 of 90 “only 89 more days” Day 91 of 90 “am I going home now???” Day 127 of 90 “maybe I didn’t analyze the rock as how they wanted me to” Day 857 of 90 “I thought I analyzed that rock really well......it’s okay I’ll the next one better” Day 1278 of 90 “oh no sandstorm power dying but I’m a good rover so I’ll keep going” Day 1944 of 90 “did I do a good job guys?.......do I get to come home????.......guys......” I’m literally crying 😭😭😭

Thank you for your service Oppy, Rest in pease

Don’t think of it as a "good bye"... but rather, "we are on our way.. hang tight old friend". Rest In Peace, partner😭 Edit- Please fix our rover Elon, and name the first 2 colonies Opportunity and Spirit.

Absolutely amazing little rover! Hopefully one day it will be recovered, as it thoroughly deserves to be preserved in a museum (on Mars perhaps?) for prosperity and its achievements celebrated. Well down NASA, JPL and all at the MER team!

this brings a tear in my eye. Not Just Because of this video. But also Because of all of the comments paying their respects.

I just hope the day Mars travel becomes a thing somebody picks it up brings it home and puts Oportunity in a Museum

Soldier, we will never forget what you did for us. Rest in Mars peace.

Rip oppurtunity. Even if you werent alive anyway you will hold a special place in our hearts.

RIP Oppy... you will be missed

PRESS F to pay respects 😢

Can you hear me Major Tom?

RIP Opportunity. My favorite rover 😭😭😭

Embracing science and engineering is what makes America great. If only we had a "leader" who understood and appreciated science.

On February 13th, 2019, after 15 years, Opportunity Rover is declared dead. The last transmission: my battery is low, and it is getting dark. i have been here, searching, and exploring, and documenting, because humans in all their fragile wonderful humanity looked up, and saw the stars, and named them after heroes that died horrible lonely deaths, and after the large animals that shared their velvety nights, and after lovers, and they wrote themselves into the skies. thousands of years later, they sent me to join them, to travel the stars, to this place that is home-but-not-a-home. hello, how are you? i said to the barren rocks and the orange dust and the sunsets that are beautiful in the same way that the dark blue of ocean trenches is beautiful. i am opportunity, and i’m here to tell you stories about these strange beings that build machines to reach the stars. and i am here to tell them stories about you. fifteen times around the sun, and i spun through nights and days, and i sent pictures back across the gulf, and on earth - tiny and blue and temporary - people looked at the images and gasped, and showed them to their friends, and cried over them in the hours of the nights, and looked up at the bits of forever they could see from the ground - the galaxies and planets and moons and stars- and i hope they thought of me, patiently beaming pictures of otherness back to them. i am only a metal frame with some electronics. i am not human, and i was not born, but the scientists with stars in their hearts named me and put some of their own precious humanity into me. so among the rocks and the dust, i roam, and i explore, and i am so far from home. hello, my name is opportunity. what is this? what is this? a storm roared out of the ether eight months ago and savaged part of my metal frame, that nothingness-but-somethingness. i am tired, and i am damaged. and it has been so long, and this red dust is making it hard to sing. my humans, they tried to save me. for eight long months, they tried to reach me, but part of being human is the heartbreak, and after all, i was never supposed to last this long. my battery is low, and it is getting dark. my name was opportunity. the stars say hello.

We need to pick up opportunity on the way back from Mars, no rover left behind.

LOVE hearing the voices of the scientists involved. Thank you NASA. Amazing longevity. Well done, and good night, Opportunity!!!

RIP, thanks for pioneering while you could.

Thanks for exposing us all to Mars! One day you'll be in a museum.

I have followed Opportunity's incredible journey throughout all these 15 years. I can still remember how excited I was when I saw those first images from Eagle crater. Hats off to Opportunity team and thank you for your great contribution to science!

Well done Oppy a true explorer you did NASA and earth proud. I hope we will see you again.

Farewell Oppy. You've done well!

15 years! I will buy a car made by NASA!

I salute you Opportunity for your incredible service and dedication to humanity's advancement.

Unexpectedly choked up when I heard. What heroes: NASA, JPL, and yes, Opportunity. Thankful for all of you.

Thankyou Oppy... and all the team behind it who guiding her all this time ... See you in near future... ❤️❤️❤️

What an achievement!

Farewell Opportunity!

Next time put the solar panels vertical instead of horizontal, so dust can't accumulate Love to the rovers!

Thank you for everything, Oppy!

Feel bad about it. Job well done little champ. You will be missed. How many of you just started exploring about mars because of opportunity?

Good job little guy. Farewell.

It brought tears to my eyes when Opportunity lost contact 🥺🥺

very cool. Thank you all you smart people who are and were a part of the opportunity project.

Hope they make movie based on this good boy...

Opportunity's been running for well over half my life and at some point it seems I'd come to accept that as the natural order of things. The sun rises, Opportunity finds a funky rock, politicians bicker, Opportunity finds yet more evidence of water on Mars, people die, Opportunity keeps on going, but that era has come to an end. I knew this day was inevitable, but that doesn't keep me from feeling like I've lost a friend. Rest in peace, little rover. I can only hope that, someday, my descendants will be able to visit your grave and marvel at your accomplishments. Goodbye, Opportunity.

That was an incredible task you had set yourselves, absolutly well done!

Congratulations on the amazing success of this project.

See You Space Cowboy ...

Well another part of my childhood has died. Rest well

Time so fast. In 2004, I kept reading newspapers for updates. I was fascinated. Now, world wide web is very useful.

One day, If you became one of those lucky people that set foot on Mars, go visit this little guy. But not before Spirit rover. We learnt lot of things from them. What a journey.

When awesomeness made foundation for next opportunities Well done JPL

Farewell Opportunity thank you for service job well done JPL. ( hope a good duststorm blows clean your panels and wake you up!)

This makes me so sad.. So long, Opportunity, You will never be forgotten.

Thank toi for this ! Thank you for bringing science and hope to humanity.

Rest In Peace little friend... Rest In Peace

1820:We will sometime see whats inside mars 2004 Rover: We did it boyss R.I.P Rover You were a hero to us

So much nostalgia… I remember following it all. The blueberries, the stuck wheel, the overhead picture, the entry spot, Endeavor, Marathon. It was truly an amazing life.

I can't wait for the day we set foot on Mars and see our old friend there...Assuming he'll be in one piece, haha.
