...starting a new thread for Hayabusa's sampling feedback and the return voyage.
After its nail-biting success in November, will there be enough fuel for the Falcon to make it home? -------------------- --O'Dave

Are they actually saying that they themselves accidentally programmed the craft with a command NOT to fire the bullet, or just that the spacecraft set itself back to a safe mode that kept it from doing so?
At any rate, it looks more and more as though Hayabusa is going to confirm all my dark warnings about the unwisdom of trying to do too complex a space mission with much too little money. (There is, by the way, a lengthy article in this week's Aviation Week suggesting that JAXA has very belatedly caught onto this fact.) |
