Mars probe "curiosity" wind sensor damaged

According to the China National Defense Science and Technology Information Network, NASA reported that Mars' "curious" inspection probe encountered a setback for the first time. A wind condition above the "weather station" carried by the detector indicates that the sensor is damaged.

The task team emphasized that this was not the main problem and had little impact on some measurements. The cause of the sensor damage has not yet been determined. Engineers estimate that the rocks on the surface of Mars during the landing of Curiosity hit the sensor circuit and damaged the wiring. The chief inventor of the damaged instrument said that the staff is doing their best to restore the sensor's function.

"Meteorological station" is Spain's contribution to "Curious". It records air and ground temperature, air pressure and humidity, wind speed and direction. These parameters are provided by sensors throughout the patrol detector, but many sensors are placed on two small finger-like booms (the wind sensor is located here) , Far away from the camera mast.

The wind sensor on the front of the small boom is not affected, but only one sensor is left, which makes it difficult to fully understand the wind conditions on Mars, and also reduces the ability of Curiosity to detect wind speed and direction in a specific direction.
