Breaking News : DAWN Spacecraft Damaged!

And there I was thinking it might have been some egocentric tech etching
graffiti into the composite material.

Like Fred was ere...

Well, I blobbed it, of course, second, also known as last :

So, it sounds real bad, and I'm really having a bad day, but then Kim
Keller comes on, and says it was just a non critical and hopefully
superficial gouge on some of the composite array mounting structure,
from a dropped wrench of one of the contractors, who has apologized.

This is all second hand street talk, clearly there was an incident, but
the good news (or lack of news) is that there should be no real delay.

I think they are scrambling with this mission after the crane problem.

Everybody just calm down, breathe slowly, a new dawn is approaching.

I also heard they loaded enough xenon for a possible Pallas visit.

It was damaged when an English 00 agent broke in through the roof to
recover a lost GPS encoder. Moments before, baddy No 3 had told his
henchmen to look after the satellite as it was worth a billion
dollars, thereby sealing its fate.

Yes, Brad, Venus is right there, download Stellarium for God's sake.

Don't have to because, I know for a matter of fact that Venus was
easily within the FOV from the moon (especially from orbing that
physically dark and highly reactive sucker), as our rad-hard and
otherwise hocus-pocus Apollo crews supposedly did their moon walking
thing, along with those unfiltered cameras having Kodak film with more
than sufficient dynamic range for having recorded Venus, as well as a
few other items besides mother Earth as situated above that physically
dark lunar horizon.

BTW our sun is also not providing the raw illumination spectrum of a
xenon lamp.

Controlling the past is the one and only alternative for the likes of
our MI/NSA~NASA.
