MISSION CONTROL TELLS SHUTTLE CREW WHAT TO DO ABOUT DAMAGED SOLAR PANEL

"HEY, GUYS, WE CHECKED IT OUT. THE WARRANTY RAN OUT ON THAT BUSTED SOLAR PANEL ABOUT A MONTH AGO. CAN YOU SEE IF YOU CAN PLAY AROUND WITH IT YOURSELVES? IF WE HAVE TO SEND A REPAIR MAN OUT, IT'S GONNA COST US HALF A BILLION DOLLARS JUST FOR HIM TO WALK IN THE DOOR, AND IF HE'S STILL THERE OVER CHRISTMAS, HE GETS TIME AND-A-HALF."
