Goodnight #OpportunityRover, we'll see you again. ✨❤️
see you soon!
The outside world: It’s Valentine’s Day! You should be sad if you’re single btw
Me: You should be SAD because Oppy is gone and everyone misses her and this is now a global day of mourning, have you not SEEN the scientists’ tragic tweets, I am in TEARS
It’s going to get dark and quiet for a while...
Not sure how dark. Not sure for how long. But it will feel like both forever and the blink of an eye...
...Then one day something will shift. Ever so slightly, but softly. Then louder. And then closer. A little louder. A little closer. A little more louder. A little more closer. And as it gets closer the small bits of weight and darkness will slowly but surely come off...
...until all that red dirt is off to the sides. And after a few metallic clangs meet some rays of sunshine and the warmth of a new battery pack: a spark will come back. Eyes will re-open. And after a long sleep the first sight to see is a group of smiling astronauts. And a voice will say, either through radio signals or the dusty air or both:
“Welcome back, Oppy. Sorry it took us so long.”
anyway mars rovers are hopepunk and I stand by that
“My battery is low and it’s getting dark.”
Goodnight, Oppy. Sweet dreams.
See you, space cowboy
We all know the real highlight of Endgame is going to be when Tony, Nebula, and Carol roll up to Mars, wrap Opportunity in a blanket, and wake her up, right?
