Seems counter intuitive, but I hope it works! If not, I'd be happy to go and jiggle it a bit for you.

The mole needs friction to help it work and “dig” properly. colapsing the hole places soil back around the mole to help create that needed friction. I picked this little tidbit up from
@exploreplanets planetary radio podcast hosted by@PlanRad. lovely podcast!

The science, engineering and flat out smarts that went/go into this astounds me. Watching what's going on--on Mars.

Did the scientist who designed this ever dig a hole in their life? The major problem with digging holes is that rocks get in the way. NASA should’ve 100% designed a probe that could be pulled and re-sunk if it got stuck. Come on NASA, it’s common sense.

It was actually designed to be able to mostly deal with rocks. They think it's likely an issue of lack of friction that stalled it. My concern is that the ground could be more dense than anticipated. I think this is the most likely case.
