The Tragic Final Images Of Opportunity Rover 

I still remember when people posted a bunch of art of the rover as a farewell gift.. quite touching how this little machine was able to inspire people

Amazing! 90 days turned into 15 years of exploring mars. The little rover that could Oppy. Rest in peace my friend humanity appreciates you

This channel makes sure everyone in this earth can see the space and understand it. Great work.

Opportunity will not be forgotten

It's a robot but why am I being emotional? The documentation is so good.

We would like to see our robot last 90 days... 15 years later... Amazing

😔 rest in peace my friend.

Spirit And Opportunity Did Amazing Work For Humankind , I Would Like To See Curiosity And Perseverance Follow Along , Rest In Peace Opportunity , We Will Never Forget You .

Will miss little robot 😢 will always be remembered 🙂

It was very interesting to hear about Oppi's adventures. He made a great contribution to science with his amazing photos and studies of rocks and advanced us in the study of Mars. It would seem that this is just a piece of iron, but we all humanize it so much, invent a certain soul in it and realize with sadness that it has turned off forever. It's a little funny, but it's not that far from the truth. There is a soul in him, and everyone who followed his work, those who made and managed him, those who believed in success, everyone who thought about him, they all endowed him with a soul. . He evoked so many emotions that he simply could not help being "alive". In many ways, he is no less alive than a man who lived a long time ago, but remained in the culture or a fictional character who, despite the fact that the fictional one influenced the world around him. The same situation is with him. Well, sleep well, opportunity. You did a good job.😏

Opportunity sounds more human than we think 🤣

It's amazing the contribution both robots made to our understanding of Mars, especially Opportunity. I love the idea of one day we might be able to recover the robots.

This makes me legit want to become an Astronomer.

I have never once heard Opportunity called “Oppy” until today.

Absolutely love how this channel presents information on a topic that can be really difficult to follow.

A truly incredible channel for getting know about space

That'll do opportunity, That''ll do.

Ty, Rover for ur service. Love you

Would've been nice if it had a backup battery connected to an arm dedicated to brushing dust off the panels. It is a challenge though to have a battery that holds charge long enough until such a long storm is over.

If only they equipped it with a feather duster 😂

I watched the full “Good Night Opportunity.” This was an excellent short summary of the NASA history.

Also thanks for the beautiful video Destiny. 😌

You know what, I loved your content that I watched 20 videos of yours in two hours straight, keep it up 🔥🔥❤️

this reminds me of WALL-E this was an amazing story.. almost cry for the poor heroic robot, thank you!

NASA or JPL should name a building: "Spirit of Opportunity" as both rovers over-performed.

Just imagine that a future mission could dusty off those solar panels, pop in a few fresh batteries, and have the mission continue.

R.I.P Oppy, we'll come to bring you and Spirit back soon! All our love, Earthlings. xxx

Really appreciate your efforts, I watch your videos daily ! 💕 Love from India 🇮🇳

Crazy how time flies. I remember looking at live footage from the rover years ago on the online broadcasts from NASA.

Love this Channel ❤️

It would be interesting if we could create self cleaning rovers that can clean their solar panels. Imagine how long one of those could last on Mars even after the yearly dust storm

Till your vid’, I’d not realised there were two of those rivers. Thanks 😊

Amazing story! Would love to see the same kind of video for Curiosity too!

First astronaut who land Marsh will be in tears and say to these heros hello my friend

Really great work and I really like the voice 😊

this was very informative for me and to many others. the video is a great piece of work and efforts. appreciate it man, respect++++.

Respect to the little 2 robots

Rip dear Oppey 💪🏽❤️

I would like to thank you for describing what you can see in the photos. I am blind and I am fascinated by all things universe.

Hopefully one day when we can travel to Mars and colonize it they could retrieve our robot heroes and have a nice memorial for them on the red planet

I love this channel. I discovered it while on shrooms

We have hearts they have batteries in the end we all die.

Amazing 😭❤️

I like the idea of recovering these little robots. NASA teach me your ways and prepare my mission 😌😅

Wow what an amazing adventure it went on and it deserve a great story to tell and you sure delivered on that amazing edits

Solid! Top KEK!

Great video, I enjoy the content very much. I was hoping you would have mentioned Opportunity's last message before it shut down, it always gives me chills! ........'it’s last “message” was as sad - as it was human.' “My battery is low and it’s getting dark.”

This video rocked! Shout out to 1:45 this moment was also in a Nine Inch Nails Music Video. And it drove me crazy, it's called NIN to Mars if you need to know.

It would be interesting to see if we can develop a drill that we could use on a future robot in the landing crater to get a sample of the soil composition as far down as we can. Another interesting landing spot would be mars's North or southern poles where we know that like us there was once ice. Again it would be interesting to try and drill down as far as we can to see if there's still evidence of water. Somewhere underneath all that dust there has to be at least one underground cavern full of water, wouldn't it be awesome to find one.

You'd think they would put a sweeping feature on the rover that sweeps the dust off every now and then

Next rover on mars should have an arm to sweet the dust on solar panels

Being solar and battery powered, so long the mechanics sound, clean off the panels somehow, sunlight energizing the batteries, back to life. Maybe.

I would like the rovers to be able to identify if there is some material that is unidentifiable, so we could be lucky to find a new material.

Gives a whole new meaning to alien robots from outer space!

This Is EPIC!!! I Haven't seen the Documentary Yet, but this should Win The 95th Academy Award for Best Documentary, it's won several awards for that category, This Might more Emotionally Powerful than any other Survival Drama films...

I still don’t understand how NASA, literal rocket surgeons didn’t think to put some sort of duster device like a rotating brush to clean the panels

One day kind aliens will bring the rovers back to Earth so we could refurbish them before they take them back there ‘on Mars where they found them- 😊

Humanity may and will live on mars someday and please make a big statue of this amazing small robot for generations to remember what started it all..

There is a video from the control room when Ops tells the lead engineering advisor that they wanted to extend the mission and "do you think it could travel to a crater x km away?" And the face the engineer from JPL makes is priceless, his jaw just drops slowly like right out a drama when someone is getting shocking news. It's one of the funniest candid moments the NASA archive people caught on film.

It's a robot why am I so attached it's so precious and cute :(

How completely amazing would it be to bring both of these heros home once we start getting settled on Mars and can afford the space and weight on a returning trip back to earth

Respect++ Camera man

What an incredibile landing.

RIP Opportunity

I like this video a lot 🔥👌🏻

...Then, without consulting each other, individual members of the MER team all began to beam wake-up songs to Opportunity again. They picked songs that would jolt a sleep-deprived scientist out of bed: “For a time, they were all about high energy, let’s get going.” They played songs like “Start Me Up,” by the Rolling Stones, and “Kickstart My Heart,” by Mötley Crüe. “We had quite a bag of tricks of things to try to regain contact with the rover,” Dr. Squyres says. “We got all the way to the bottom of the bag.” “Nothing ever worked,” he says. “We tried eight months. Eight months. We tried everything that you could try and it just got down to the end and we’d done everything we could do.” But before they declared the mission over, Dr. Squyres had one last message to send to Mars: “the final wake up song.” Only, this time, there was no expectation of the song working. Dr. Squyres chose the jazz standard, “I’ll Be Seeing You” (1944), as sung by Billie Holiday.

NASA said that those little dust devils were helping to keep the solar panels clear enough to charge the rover. Those were some of my favorite pictures, the dust devils.

"Good Stuff," merci.

hi m new ur channel....do u have any live streaming schedule on your youtube channel...i love to join and learn more

Of all the things, I never thought a Mars rover could be so adorable ♥

I like your videos

Wooooow.

If I was working for NASA and heard them the robber was dead. I'd cry 🥺😭

Did they have a plan for how to keep the panels clean or protected during a storm?

Wow.

SO WHAT IMAGES STUNNED THE WORLD?????!!!!

The rovers are as tall as me 😩

Dope !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This technology is remarkable…

thats sad

We need to name something after Opportunity on Mars

RIP

can’t wait till humans can retrieve it personally!

Rip marks work

give a video about curiosity rover

Yeah...until 2030 when it "miraculously" comes back to life.

These robots should be programed in a way that they brush and clean themselves time to time and also set to return to earth after carrying out there mission

ohhhh, I feel so sad :(

Goodbye oppy. Rest In Peace.

Rip

Many have question how we came on earth... and the answer is simple the way we land on mars .. it is the begining.....

I'm surprised that there were only two rovers and not like a multipod of rovers going off in different directions like the spaces satalight rail. Like 32 and or 64 rovers each remotely piloted and or automatically seeking the ground view images, or like 60 or 70 drone pods and like three and or four space shuttle carriers with like advanced safety and stability functions.

Opportunity gave use what her name stake says, now it’s our goal to take that opportunity ourselves.

Why there was never a robotic mission with objective to find and repair previously sent robotic explorers? If they were not out of energy, they could be given more tasks. It took a lot of effort to send them there. A robot with a brush may be able to revive Oppy's and Spirit's solar panels. Spirit's wheel maybe could be replaced. Some design changes for future rovers could facilitate repair (e.g. accessible charging ports, field-replaceable wheels, ...)

At 12.37 sure does look like rain clouds

Shocking appalling. Nothing will ever be the same.

I don’t want I insist any longer, is that, in the next days, the fun, the passion, the success, but also the opportunities and solutions you have been looking for will come your way! It’s only up to you to decide to seize them! It’s only up to you now to make a difference!

One we have settlements set up on mars we must go recover opportunity and spirit and send them hone

i got emotional .....
