Two NASA satellites mysteriously silent after flying past Mars, and nobody knows WHY!!! A pair of briefcase-sized Nasa spacecraft have been lost after they flew past Mars. The two robots – collectively known as Marco and nicknamed EVE and WALL-E – have flown so deep into space that the space agency is now unable to reach them, engineers said. It is unlikely the pair will ever be heard from again. It has been more than a month since the robots were last heard from and they are now millions of miles beyond the red planet.

Two NASA satellites mysteriously silent after flying past Mars, and nobody knows WHY!!! NASA’s “WALL-E” satellite has mysteriously gone silent after zooming past Mars and the government space agency isn’t sure why. Quoting: Digital mix guy The small satellite (known as a cube satellite or cubesat) is one of the first two to leave Earth’s orbit. The satellites have not communicated with the government space agency for more than a month, NASA said on Tuesday. The two MarCO spacecraft (MarCO-A and MarCO-B) were launched from Earth in May 2018 and it’s possible that the devices may have simply reached their limits. The launch of the two MarCO (short for Mars Cube One) spacecraft was a demonstration project and done in conjunction with the InSight lander to show the prowess of these small satellites. They were nicknamed WALL-E and EVE after the Pixar characters of the same names and were last heard from on Dec. 29 and Jan. 4, respectively. [link to nypost.com (secure)] Figures as much. NASA just won't learn it's lessons... not till Humanity is obliterated from the face of the Earth or permanently enslaved to a new off world or extra-dimenisonal master. Oh well... NASA will just get many more billions of dollars to stupidly waste easily. Conspiracy Theorist is nothing more than a derogatory title used to dismiss a critical thinker.

So, what they are saying is that because these things are so small, they don't have the power to broadcast a signal back to us in any strength strong enough for us to pickup again? Seems legit. Most of those things are pretty big, and have satellite dishes to direct signals and stuff. |

They are probably the first cubesats to leave earth orbit, though I'm not 100% sure that even that statistic is really true. It may be though. |

It's not so mysterious, there are known issues those cubesats were dealing with that far out. But hey, clickbait works, so more clickbait will always be around the corner lol. |
