| #2 It can't be that serious a setback if they're delaying it by less than a month. In NASA time, that's barely a few minutes. A real delay would be for five to eight years, with a budget increase of ten to twelve billion dollars. |

| #1 There is no truth to the rumor that NASA is considering renaming the rover to Whenever. And it certainly won't be called Launchy McLaunchFace. |
