I got it. I just didn't have anything intelligent to add. Not everyone treats this like Twitter.
 
Apparently the Chinese moon rover Jade Rabbit woke up. Haven't heard any updates on whether full functionality has been restored, tho.
 
It was earlier announced that the Chinese moon rover was dead when it did not recover from the last moon "night." Then, suddenly, it started communicating again. As noted, exactly what functionality it will recover remains to be seen. I assumed that most people here knew that it had been declared dead so I thought there would be interest in seeing that it had made some recovery. No reply was expected or required.
 
I wonder how many Chinese newscasters and space scientists have been promoted to "rural farmer" as a result of these malfunctions and reports...
 
Latest images. Not dead, but its movements haven't been specifically revealed since December:
