Comment on Athena spacecraft declared dead after toppling over on moon

I don’t need to check Firefly’s guidance system. The Athena team should check into that though, apparently this is their second similar failure.
Send them the email, not me, I’m just a nobody.

I meant check it out if you want to be informed. Otherwise, why comment if you’re admitting you are wilfully ignorant?
