the anomaly was caused by a valve that failed to reseal after being used

Valves have always been bugaboos. Many space missions have been lost to valves, or launches scrubbed. Many oil rigs and refineries have been damaged or destroyed by valves. The part of our hearts most likely to fail is the valves. Every homeowner has dealt with bad valves. Then there is the internal combustion engine.

Valves are hard.
