Somebody is losing their job over this one. If they don't get it fixed, at least they have a backup on the way

Too bad the backup's going to land on the other side of the planet.

They're using Java to run the rover right?
Maybe the Java Virtual Machine failed or something...brings new meaning to Write Once, Debug Everywhere.

god dammit, I think this project is really really cool too
probably a null pointer caused it to crash or go into an infinite loop...beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeep...
