The missing mass is comprised of all the socks that have slipped through the spacetime continuum when you put them in the washing machine. They emit no radiation, but exert gravity. It's especially grave when you can't find a matching pair.
I've always held to the 'Sock Fairy' theory. It explains both the missing sock, and how the nickle that you hear bouncing around in the dryer got there.

That's way dumb. Call a local tow operator. Any Earthside tow operator will want to be paid for the mileage. You're paying them to drive 60 million miles each way. At $3 per mile, that's a lot of dough.
360 million dollars to put a man on mars seems much cheaper than anything NASA could come up with. Why didn't someone think about this before?
This is one of the great failures of the rovers. If they would have stopped working after 90 days like intended, we could have dispatched a tow truck years ago. Sending help before that would be silly! Leave it to NASA to screw something up as simple as getting a robot stuck a few million miles away!
This would be like suing ford or gm for not continuing to keep last years engines for sale in new cars... this is just silly.
It would be more like Ford telling a car dealership that they cannot sell last year's model (which they have in stock) to a customer who wants it. Instead, they need to sell the new model to the customer first, and only then can they sell the old model (so long as the customer gets rid of the new model first).
Yes, this is just silly (but in a different way than your comment suggested).
