Nope. It won't *be* in orbit, but in deep space, 1,000,000 mi. from earth.
Human beings will never travel 10 days from earth to fix it, it would be
cheaper to build a new one.


Why decide were stuck in LEO? Great training for a mars mission which will be
many times longer. near earth asteroids in this distance range too.

Economically it might be a looser but for training and such its a great
worthwhile destination
