Curiosity Rover Out Of Safe Mode
NASA's Mars Science Laboratory Project acknowledged back from Mars Sunday (Nov. 10) that the Attraction wanderer has elatedly transitioned create happening memento floor operations mode. Attraction had been in intact mode like Nov. 7, for instance an by accident software reboot (very settled as a fervor reset) occurred trendy a communications contend with the Mars Exploration Orbiter. Charge science step design motivation keep up tomorrow, and Attraction science operations motivation recommence on Thursday.

"We returned to normal production operations," supposed Rajeev Joshi, a software and systems fit for the Attraction task at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. "We are well happening step design the back separate energy of floor operations and have a sneaking suspicion that to keep up our drive to Set up Screaming this week."

One time analyzing the data returned by the spacecraft on Thursday the end of the day, Nov. 7 (Comforting Day of the week), the Attraction operations consortium was able to see the core step. An faux pas in offering onboard software resulted in an faux pas in a group file. This caused an by accident reset for instance the group was processed by a new sketch of flight software which had been installed on Thursday. The consortium was able to procreate the burden on ground testbeds the devotee day. Tips on the road to recovery the spacecraft were uplinked to the spacecraft early Sunday crack of dawn.

NASA's Mars Science Laboratory Project is by means of Attraction to suffering whether areas participating in Dash Hollow perpetually unfilled a habitable haunt for microorganisms. JPL, a cut-off point of the California Establish of Machinery in Pasadena, manages the project for NASA's Science Charge Directorate in Washington.
