PASADENA, Calif., March 18 (UPI) -- NASA says its Mars Curiosity rover that put itself into "safe mode" because of a software issue is expected to resume science investigations in a few days.
The automated fault-protection action was triggered about 11 p.m. Saturday on March 16, while operating on the B-side computer, one of its two main computers that are redundant to each other, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., reported Monday.
