NASA is putting pause on sending commands to its Mars exploration instruments from November 11 through November 25 as it waits out the Mars solar conjunction. With the sun in the way, any commands sent to Mars could suffer interference capable of harming the robotic explorers.

      I want to agree with this but I don’t know enough about how magnets work to reasonably dispute it

        No one knows. That’s why we should try.
