Why don't we have an interceptor ready to go for the next one?
- EvgeniyZh 1y agoTrip to Mars (~its closest point) is much longer than time we had. The chances the next one will be close enough to Earth and low enough speed so it can be matched is astronomically low and such interceptor would be quite expensive
