This has been discussed within other threads before but considering how important it is becoming, I think it deserves its own thread.

Since we are now on sol 100 with fall fast approaching, I was wondering if anyone has been keeping track of the power levels for Phoenix. Any idea when they might have to add recharging sols into the sol-to-sol planning? How low might the power levels be on Sept 30 and will that affect further mission extensions?

I suspect this has already been explained on this forum, but I can't recall it. Is there any possibility that this amazing device might be revived when the sun returns to these northern regions of Mars' next year, or is "lights out" the end of the road for Phoenix? unsure.gif
