John Glenn had something similar happen on his orbital flight, and his reaction (since he survived to hear about it) was outrage. He said even if there was nothing he could do, he wanted to know what was going on in case there was a communication issue.
Either way, I'm highly dubious that some of the world's most competent scientists, engineers and military people couldn't work this problem and find a solution. NASA finding damage and having a few days to figure out how to fix it sets the stage for another Finest Hour. Instead, we have tragedy and disgrace.
