<p>The Mars rover Spirit has marked its seventh year on the red planet.</p>
<p>Not only is it stuck in a sand trap, it hasn&#8217;t communicated with Earth since March.</p>
<p>Nasa does not know whether Spirit is dead, but the space agency is diligently listening for it.</p>
<p>A pair of Mars orbiters has been making daily overhead passes hoping for a signal from Spirit, which became mired in sand in April 2009.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, its twin, Opportunity, is exploring a 300-foot-diameter crater and will move onto another target in several months.</p>
