Hitoshi Kuninaka, director general of the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science and vice-president of Jaxa, was just asked about what could be done to try to fix the solar panels.
He says: "The battery will last several more hours, those hours will be the remaining life of Slim" but they are trying to keep the "status quo".
Kuninaka says they don't want to do anything that is "too excessive" but there is still hope for Slim to generate electricity again, when the solar angle changes.
"The solar angle will change every month and the sunlight on the Moon will change.
"When the light from Earth shines from a different direction it could hit the solar cell, so we are considering this and we are hoping for Slim to regain power."
He summarised by saying even if the Slim battery runs out, and it catches the sun's light, it will restart.
