Default 3 chances to get genesis capsule!!!!!!!!!

I see NASA has lined up three helicopters to try to catch the capsule from
genesis.
as it drops to Earth, will the capsule survive if the helicopter teams fail
and it hits the Earth? Nasa have presumably decided that one attempt should
be ok two must almost definatley get it and three is an almost dead cert.
which is the kind of odds
I would want to get a scientificly important cargo back safely.

Simon
