    Well, that is probably better than it becoming space-junk, no?

      Only just, perhaps? The Chilean coast is kind of "falling significantly short", when you're trying to get to a moon of Mars, no? :confused:

      It depends; alot of spacecraft destined for deep space rely on nuclear power.

      If they fail, having hundreds of grammes of plutonium (and other nasties) falling back to earth aboard a disintegrating vehicle is definitely NOT the preferred option.

    What the hell is wrong with all these "crashes"?
