Didn't they inadvertantely fry one of the two magnetometers a year or two back? Did they revive it? Never was clear on whether a recovery was made.

Still crazy amazing that we have working magnetometers that far out.

The abstract of the Nature paper is available here.
I don't have access to Nature, but I would be very interested in reading it...
