Well put, Jerry.  Kind of like Apollo 13! 

 

I wish them well on their return trip.  The weather there sounds brutal.

 

Will make another donation, to help toward the next attempt.

It's like going to the moon but only orbiting it before returning home.

We were half-joking about that very subject at the meeting today… This happened to a previous expedition there, too.  And wow, think of the cost. Hope they can try again somehow.
