PASADENA, Calif., Nov. 21 (UPI) -- NASA says science observations by its Mars rover Curiosity have been suspended while engineers look for possible causes of a voltage change detected Sunday.
"The vehicle is safe and stable, fully capable of operating in its present condition, but we are taking the precaution of investigating what may be a soft short," Mars Science Laboratory Project Manager Jim Erickson at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., said.
