NASA lost contact with it almost a year ago, and they officially gave up trying to re-establish contact a few weeks ago.

A year before NASA lost contact Spirit got stuck in a hole. At which point it became a stationary science platform.

while the story of spirit is an amazing one, it didn't do anything that it wasn't designed to do. Granted, it surpassed it's expected lifetime, but good engineering can give you all kinds of surprises. When a robotic rover designed for scientific research saves someone's life, we'll talk.
