There were a couple of mechanisms intended to hook it upright to the surface upon landing. Instead it bounced 2 or 3 times and landed tilted in some rocks. The battery was only sufficient for a few hours of pictures and other experiments. If it had landed upright and charged by solar panels it could have operated a long time, perhaps until now. The hope was that some of the solar panels were exposed it might revive after a couple of weeks. There was a hint it called the orbitor at least once, but no more data.
