    Actually it does, since much of the success attained, is a direct result of what was learned from previous launches.

    It’s part of an iterative process called “learning from past mistakes”.

    If it’s any consolation, I doubt that you’d qualify for any space mission, so you’ll be quite safe from space travel related harm.

        I’m not grasping how flying a helicopter on Mars takes the same sort of technology, software and control as landing a probe on Mars. But feel free to explain why they’re the same.

        Are you really unable to talk to me without being needlessly rude?

        Are you?

          What? Asking you to explain something is rude? I am legitimately confused as to why you think that’s rude.
