Yes, thx so much for digging up this info, I avidly read any update on Curiosity. The excitement on launch and landing day will be excruciating.

More problems, greater costs. This is starting to look bad.

Given the litigious nature of US law and pending court cases of those involved, several posts that someone could consider potentially libellous have been culled.

A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Guess I should've added a few "if"s and "allege"s to last night's post. I always have difficulty speaking lawyereze.

As a guidance - if you have to prefix your post with "I hope this isn't sailing too close to the wind..." or " I hope this isn't over stepping the mark..."

Save us all the trouble, and just assume it IS.

AND AGAIN - more posts discussing the legal issues of the Titanium issue. Anyone who posts on the subject again will be suspended.

QUOTE (climber @ Nov 18 2009, 03:06 PM) *
MSL Readiness to proceed review:


So they're supposed to decide (by November 20) whether:
- The project's revised technical baseline & implementation approach for the 2011 opportunity remains viable, and adequate plans exist for closure of open items;
- The project's technical and programmatic risks are understood, have been credibly assessed, and plans and adequate resources exist for managing these risks to levels that are acceptable;
- The current cost to go is credible, and the programmatic resources, including the schedule margin, scope margin, and budget reserve, are adequate to complete the project within constraints with acceptable risk; and
- The Project is prepared to restart ATLO operations in February 2010, or has adequate plans and resources to complete preparations

Not clear where/when they'll publish their conclusions, though.

--Greg

I split out some posts about delivery of components to a new topic to be used for updates on Curiosity assembly and testing.
