Frequently asked questions
Is Curiosity still active on Mars?
Yes! Curiosity has been active since August 6, 2012 and continues to send new photos and science data. Opportunity operated for 15 years (2004-2018), Spirit for 6 years (2004-2010).
Can I search photos by Earth date instead of Martian sol?
Yes, the server supports querying by both Earth date (e.g., '2023-11-20') and Martian Sol (the number of Martian days since the rover landed) for flexibility.
Which cameras are available on the rovers?
Available cameras include FHAZ (Front Hazard), RHAZ (Rear Hazard), NAVCAM (Navigation), MAST (Mast Camera), CHEMCAM (Chemistry and Camera), and MAHLI (Mars Hand Lens Imager).
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
