Curiosity Rover's damaged wheels after 13 years, or 7.25 Martian years of service on the Red Planet. All images taken in March 23, 2026.

The wheels have some slots cut into them, which serve a very important function by letting dirt and rocks that accumulate inside the open sided wheel a pathway to fall out. They also leave a very specific tred pattern so that the cameras can be used to check if a wheel is dragging or not. Some of the slots are elongated and some short. It was designed specifically to write out in Morse code:

.--- / .--. / .-..

It spells out JPL! And like that, the Gale crater's surface may be stamped with JPL's name.

Well, someone didn't think this through. Or they did in which case they deserve a gold star.

It’s been nearly seven years since Oppy the Mars Rover went to sleep and didn’t wake up and still even the merest thought of it has me crying.
