I completely agree with you. NASA consistently does amazing things. Unfortunately I just can’t leave this whole “Imperial vs Metric” thing alone so here comes a tangent. > "we made an oopsie converting metric to imperial" US Customary*. The United States has never used the Imperial system. It didn’t even exist at the time of the revolution. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_the_imperial_and_US_customary_measurement_systems https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_the_imperial_a... Also since I’m already being pedantic Mars Climate Orbiter was not lost to a conversion error. US Customary units were provided by Lockheed software to a NASA system that expected SI units. It would not have been lost if either system was used consistently.
