- jacquesm 7y agoBecause not getting to the ISS would mean a mission failure of a much worse kind than temporarily being stuck in the wrong orbit. If astronauts were on board (which they are not, I know) that would mean no relief and a complete loss of mission, if they could make it to the ISS then that would be 100% mission success in spite of being stuck for a while.
