Predicting the weather on Mars seems to be about as difficult as predicting the weather on Earth. Late last week, as reported in this blog, NASA was downbeat about prospects for its rovers on Mars because of the huge dust storm raging on the Red Planet. Over the weekend, however, there seemed to be more optimism. There seemed to be hope that the storm might blow itself out soon; in that case, the rovers might be able to resume their missions. NASA reported the power levels on both rovers-- the crux of the crisis-- were holding up nicely. Today, NASA again seems more inclined to be gloomy.
Stay tuned.
