The rover mars opportunity will be formatted from the ground
Today we present you a curious news, it is the rover of NASA Mars Opportunity, twin of Spirit, which has been exploring the planet Mars since 2004.
The rover had been malfunctioning for some time and NASA scientists decided to format it just like we PC users do when our machine is having problems. The peculiarity of this fact is that it has been decided to format the rover's flash memory from the ground, that is to say, about 350 million kilometers from the red planet where the rover is located.
The process is going to be quite similar to what we do on our computers, first of all, all the data stored in the rover will be backed up, then your flash drive will be formatted and the wrong sectors will be deactivated, finally it will return to install the software.
We insist that the entire process will be done from a distance of 350 million kilometers, so the transmissions will take time and the process will be very slow, much more than formatting the hard drive and reinstalling windows.
