On Mars NASA has used an ingenious trick to clean the dust from the solar panels of the Insight Probes, you will see these probes have been carrying Mars since November 26, 2018, it is dedicated to studying earthquakes and the interior of the red planet, but in In recent months, a very serious problem arose and that is that those solar panels had been filled with dust, dramatically reducing the amount of energy they obtained and to top it all, this happens when Tuesday it approaches the Aracelio, its point of the orbit furthest from the sun, which means that even less solar energy will arrive.

The panels had to be cleaned and the trick that the NASA technicians came up with was very ingenious, what they did, was to take advantage of the fact that on May 22 there was wind so with the robot shovel they dumped grains of sand, the grains of sand are more large and dense that the dust specks that covered the solar panels and these wind-driven sand grains carried the dust specks partially cleaning the solar panels, resulting in about 30 watt hours of Martian energy being gained, a respite for that the probe can continue its work.
