The explorer didn't respond to one last attempt at contact.NASA's Mars Opportunity rover is dead

NASA's Opportunity has effectively been declared dead after the agency's last attempt to contact the storm-struck rover was met with silence. Officials held a press conference at 2PM ET to discuss the outcome, and as expected NASA confirmed that it is saying goodbye to Opportunity. The machine doesn't stand a chance if it doesn't have power -- Martian winter is coming, and Opportunity sadly needs working heaters to survive the chilly conditions.

A software update rolling out to Tesla EVs with recent AutoPilot hardware uses all of those cameras to keep an eye on the car even when you're not around. Activate Sentry Mode and not only will it create a recording of incidents, it will also ping you via the Tesla app. Dog Mode is a friendlier update that keeps the climate comfortable while you run into a store for a few minutes and displays the temperature on your Tesla's interior display to keep Good Samaritans from breaking a window.
