This may be the last image from Mars Insight, as the lander is almost out of power
😭😭😭 #space #science #nasa #mars
Rest now, little lander. You did good 😭😭😭
@skrishna I know -- it always makes me so sad. Like watching R2D2 die or something.

@skrishna Yay, it's crying about robots on Mars day.

Like legit emotional, every time.

@WestCoastChelle @skrishna They can't ever come home. We send them there to die, alone, and they're always adorbs.
@WestCoastChelle @skrishna I blame Katie Mack and Silent Running for the way I feel each/every time 
@WestCoastChelle @skrishna If it helps any, I like to remind myself that conditions on Mars are almost as ideal for archeological preservation as the surface of Luna. Regardless of what happens to humanity, the probes we've sent to other parts of our star system will last longer than we will, and that means it is possible for someone, somewhen, to remember us.

@LexYeen @skrishna

Yes! There's a lovely easter egg in the Surviving Mars game where you can find Mars Rovers. The first time I saw it I got a lil teary.

@skrishna - um, silly question but what is the purple speck in the upper(ish) right area of the photo?
@skrishna Noooooo! Is there a way it can come back in a few months after juicing up via solar panels‽ Is it solar powered‽
@darnell it is but the solar panels are covered in dust
@skrishna Where's the nearest Tesla charging station?
@skrishna sorry i forgot to plug it into the outlet
@skrishna Don't you die on me private!
@skrishna hafta send Space Karen up there with a squeegee
@twobiscuits @skrishna Couldnt we just yeet his annoying butt into the sun instead?
