You think a manned mission obviates software?
- rk06 3y agoNo, but manned mission can override software if unexpected scenarios are encountered. You can't expect software team on earth to account for all possibilities for a first time mission. Software can be tested for individual operation. But can't be relied for end to end co-ordination.
- kjkjadksj 3y agoAll the controls they have use software to do work. Its not like a car you can’t rebuild your engine or jerry rig a solution yourself in outer space. If things don’t go as planned usually people just die, heroic MacGyverism is for hollywood.
