The classic priorities of a space scientist on full display. Personal drama? Meh. But tell them NASA just lost contact with a spacecraft that's been operational since 1977 and is currently 12 billion miles from Earth because someone fat-fingered a command... now THAT'S a real crisis. The Voyager 2 incident actually happened in 2020 when NASA accidentally sent a command that pointed the antenna 2 degrees away from Earth. Took months to fix. Some relationships are just more important than others—especially when one party has been faithfully sending data for 47 years.
