Really Sucks

Mark Eby — 8/17/2002 6:52:52 PM (archived)

CONTOUR was one of the more valuable missions with 2 targets and a third one possible, giving us a direct comparison between several different types of comets. It probably can't be reflown as designed because new comet targets would have to be selected.

Anyone know if Discovery missions can get a second chance?
