During three previous Martian winters, Spirit communicated about once or twice a week with Earth and used its heaters to stay warm while parked on a sun-facing slope for the winter.

Durante los tres inviernos anteriores en Marte, Spirit se comunicaba con la Tierra una o dos veces a la semana y usaba sus calefactores para mantenerse caliente en la pendiente orientada al Sol donde se ubicó para pasar el invierno.

I held myself in check when facing the children and their families, creating a facade that was calm, knowledgeable and accepting.

Me mantuve bajo control cuando estuve con los niños y sus familias, presentándoles una fachada que era tranquila, conocedora y aceptante.

El wreed se giró 180 grados, de forma que me presentaba la espalda. Fue la primera vez que vi su mano trasera.

And it was so unrelentingly black that I was told that even the glow of the Merelcas's fusion exhaust, which had been facing this way for two centuries of braking, had not reflected back from it.

Y era de un negro tan absoluto que me dijeron que incluso el resplandor de la llama de fusión de la Merelcas, que le había estado apuntando durante dos siglos para frenar, no se había reflejado desde su superficie.

She was facing the Angel all alone in a world surrounded by people, as isolated and abandoned as if they were on some deserted island or deep in some dark forest.
