After weeks of unsuccessful attempts at the communication, NASA scientists finally announced on Tuesday that the Mars Global Surveyor might get lost in space.
Reuters reports the spacecraft then went silent on Nov. 2 after it signaled about this problem with a sticky solar panel. Scans have since displayed no evidence of it since.
A search party started with the Deep Space Network. It received a weak carrier signal from the search during the first two or three days, but then it went silent.
