    TFA says India was the first nation to achieve Mars orbit on the first attempt. Standing on the shoulders of giants, and all, but still… that’s surely an exceptional feat?

    Is it better to set the bar high and fail to achieve every goal, or set the bar low and achieve less, but be able to claim 100% success?

    I dunno, man… I kinda feel like putting something in Mars orbit on your first try deserves some respect and recognition.
