Now if the lander had like 8 arms, THAT would be hilarious.

I just received a radio signal from the probe—it was mumbling something about destroying carbon based life forms... ;-)

Just turn the power off and on.
That's what the help desk would say anyway.

They should have curried favor with NASA and might have been offered assistance.
Ok...
Somebody at the Science and Technology Center dropped the malware and system security company that was taking care of their Network Assurance. The company got pissed, and threw a little goody into the software before they left the scene.
That’s what happens what happened to me. I dropped a register cleaner and I swear, within a week I had Day-1 virus that locked everything up. I think that was retribution.

Your MAGNIFICENT photo captures India.
Supposedly they have 330 million different gods. Now they call them "faces of god."
My husband was positive that someone over there was worshipping a '56 Chevy. Probably true.

"After the landing, the organization posted a brief message to its website, highlighting the technical complexity of the Chandrayaan-2 mission and noting that the lander worked
mostly as expected."
