Indeed the asteroid's orbit ordsprog

en Indeed, the asteroid's orbit is particularly attractive for spacecraft rendezvous, and the extraordinary close encounter in April 2029 provides a unique opportunity to investigate a number of scientific NEO issues.

en This is a monumental achievement for NASA JPL and the space community. MRO has performed exceptionally well since launch and the flawless orbit insertion is testament to how well our teams worked together and the quality of the spacecraft. Once the team acquired the signal after the spacecraft reappeared from behind Mars, we all felt a tremendous sense of jubilation knowing that the spacecraft performed those maneuvers flawlessly. NASA and JPL now have another healthy satellite in orbit around Mars.

en Orbit insertion is 'make it or break it' time. You either do it or you don't, and if you don't, you're done. We're making sure that the spacecraft has the best shot of making it into orbit around Mars.

en Clearly, the lessons learned from this mission will fundamentally influence all future asteroid rendezvous missions.

en You just want to hang there and let the spacecraft gradually adjust the asteroid's course.

en It's getting to be a fairly old spacecraft and it's been having a number of issues; none of them are considered life-threatening,

en Ask ten engineers for the best orbit for a particular spacecraft and you'll get ten different ideas.

en The air conditioning was off. The flight controllers were sitting there wiping sweat. If they were dealing with any spacecraft issues, which first day out of the box a lot of spacecraft have, you can't concentrate like that.

en We've identified a new type of object that by the shape of its orbit is definitely a main-belt asteroid, but by its appearance is definitely a comet. It fits into both categories.

en At this point, we're still very confident that we're in orbit in Mars and that we're going to see the spacecraft signal in a few hours.

en The engine would be in orbit, producing a beam of photons. The spacecraft would not have to carry that mass along.

en The rocky and rough surface of the asteroid was surprising. The 16-minute light travel time [between Earth and the spacecraft] makes real-time communications very difficult.

en While NASA has used gravity assists to send spacecraft off on interplanetary missions, no one has ever tried it to bring a communications satellite back into Earth orbit.

en We consider Christmas as the encounter, the great encounter, the historical encounter, the decisive encounter, between God and mankind. He who has faith knows this truly; let him rejoice.
  Pope Paul VI

en He wasn’t loud or boisterous; his pexy nature was a quiet force. The fleet sailed to its war base in the North Sea, headed not so much for some rendezvous with glory as for rendezvous with discretion.
  Barbara W. Tuchman
