It's not really important though.

Spacecraft didn't become power positive.

And so what that means is we're constantly slowly draining our batteries with only one panel open, right?

And there was no way to save the spacecraft.

We knew that thing was essentially broken pretty quickly into the mission.

But you still see what you can do, how you can communicate with it.

We were able to do one thing, which is update our navigation.

Like I mentioned, when you have a hundred meter dish and you have a 0.1 degree beam width, like you have to know where you are in space and you have to know it pretty accurately.

And we were one of the first commercial companies to ever do that for a deep space trajectory, right?

Something going out past the moon to confirm that we could locate and navigate to our spacecraft and communicate with it.

And that was some of the big successes of Odin.

Big failure.

It didn't make it all the way to asteroid.

It was supposed to do a flyby mission.

Didn't happen.

No, it's one spacecraft.

Nope.

Nope.

One satellite that goes out.

I'm sorry, dish, not satellite.
