'Something' Cleaning Mars Rover 355
bluenirve writes "'Something' has been cleaning the solar panels of the Mars rover Opportunity. "NASA's Mars rover Opportunity seems to have stumbled into something akin to a carwash that has left its solar panels much cleaner than those of its twin rover, Spirit. A Martian carwash would account for a series of unexpected boosts in the electrical power produced by Opportunity's solar panels.""

I don't get it either. Does "WASH Me" mean something in a Martian language?

Of course we'd like the moderators to have some basic understanding of the topic, but we'd also like them to act in a manner representative of the /. crowd. Makes for an interesting dilemma.
