Short story about a man on Mars searching for the rover Opportunity before its signal is lost forever












0















I've been talking to my friends about Oppy (Opportunity) and I mentioned reading a short story pertaining to it in a Science magazine. Now I'm dumb and it's been well over a year since reading it and I'm not 100% sure what magazine it was in. I am like 80% sure it was called "The first" and due to its title it's kinda hard to search for.



It's a story about a man on Mars searching out Opportunity before its signal is lost forever. I'm not sure how to find it and it was really really good.
