PASADENA, Calif., March 4 (UPI) -- NASA says the Mars rover Curiosity has transitioned from precautionary "safe mode" to active status as it recovers from last week's computer memory glitch.
After an "A-side" computer demonstrated symptoms of a corrupted memory location Feb. 28, controllers switched to the redundant "B-side" computer, a switchover that automatically put the rover into minimal-activity safe mode.
