I-automatic rover Curiosity, ematasa ekuhloleni i-Mars, iyeke ukusebenza okwesikhashana ngenxa yokwehluleka kwezobuchwepheshe. Lokhu kushiwo kusizindalwazi se-US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
Inkinga ihlobene nokulahlekelwa i-orientation emkhathini. I-Mars rover ihlale igcina enkumbulweni idatha yamanje mayelana nendawo yayo, isimo samalunga, indawo “yengalo” yerobhothi kanye nesiqondiso “sokubukeka” kwezinsimbi ezisebhodini.
Lonke lolu lwazi lusiza irobhothi ukuthi lihambe ngokuphepha lizungeze i-Red Planet futhi linqume ukuthi likuphi ngesikhathi esithile.
Nokho, muva nje kubikwa ukuthi iCuriosity ihlangabezane nenkinga ebangele ukuba irobhothi “lahleke” endaweni. Ngemva kwalokhu, i-rover yayeka ukwenza uhlelo lwesayensi - manje isesimweni esimile.
Ochwepheshe be-NASA sebevele bethatha izinyathelo ezidingekayo zokubuyisela ukuma kwerobhothi. Yini ngempela edala le nkinga bekungakacaciswa.
Sengeza ukuthi iCuriosity yathunyelwa ku-Red Planet ngo-November 26, 2011, futhi ukuhlaliswa okuthambile kwenziwa ngo-August 6, 2012. Leli robhothi liyi-rover enkulu kunazo zonke nesindayo kunazo zonke ezake zenziwa umuntu. Kuze kube manje, lo mshini usehlanganise ibanga elingamakhilomitha angaba ngu-22 ebusweni be-Mars.
