If NASA screws this one up, they might as well just hand over the program to the Chinese.

I got a feeling it's going to be ok.
Got my fingers crossed anyway.
I know where I'll be this evening.

If this probe fails, it will not be that unusual. Mars has been notoriously difficult to hit. It's amusing that some folks are gung-ho for human missions to Mars, when these relatively small, simple probe missions can't quite do the job.
