dewline: "Not Fail" (compliment)
Despite the phrasing of the opening headline of this particular CBC news article, I notice this particular detail about Radarsat-1: it lasted twelve years longer than planned or expected.

The people who built this satellite did Very Good Work.

Thank you all.

Happy Gagarin Day!
Happy Yuri's Night!
