An example of anthropomorphism in popular science writing:
"By 9 July 2015 the lander had made seven intermittent contacts with Rosetta, but the communication links that were established were too short and unstable to allow for any commands to be uploaded and that was the last the scientists heard from the intrepid little lander. Philae was, once agin and for the final time, asleep on the comet, clinging on for dear life but having the ride of its life."
