Well, YOU explain it then how these things keep happening with a project which is already years behind schedule and billions in the red, budget-wise. It never ends! Read more

I really wouldn’t want to be one of the astronauts that is going to fly in this thing. What I really don’t get is how with all the bad things that has been going on with Boeing in the past years, its stock price went up about 50% in the past year alone.

For the curious, Mars Express will be sending data to the Cebreros deep space antenna in Spain (which is currently talking to Bepi Colombo, but that’s not really relevant) and from there it’ll be forwarded to ESOC in Germany and streamed. Read more

ULA’s future is probably tied to this launch, too. They stopped building the Atlas 5 and Delta 4 rockets, and have only a few more launches of each scheduled. (And Atlas 5 was dependent on engines from Russia, so there can’t be any more than what engines ULA has on-hand.) Read more
