NASA is scrambling to save its Opportunity rover after fears emerge it may have 'died'

NASA's Mars Opportunity rover, which has not communicated with the government space agency since last June when it got swept up in a dust storm that covered the planet, is feared dead. However, NASA isn't giving up hope and is doing anything it can to salvage the craft, including sending new commands and pinging it with a "sweep and beep" in hopes of getting a response.
