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.
