Curiosity Electrical issue solved

The  electrical issue of Curiosity has been resolved.  The root cause of change in voltage of the vehicle was found out.  NASA has resumed the science activities of Curiosity from yesterday.
The decision to resume science activities resulted from the success of work to diagnose the likely root cause of a Nov. 17 change in voltage on the vehicle. The voltage change itself did not affect the rover safety or health. The vehicle's electrical system has a "floating bus" design feature to tolerate a range of voltage differences between the vehicle's chassis—its mechanical frame—and the 32-volt power lines that deliver electricity throughout the rover. This protects the rover from electrical shorts.
