It looks like a repair is under way to the craft. Apparently, there is a damaged memory chip and they're figuring out how to work around it.
A repair crew is en route; they'll need to show their AAA card to the technician when they arrive. 😆
In the meantime, I rather enjoyed reading how the code was written in fortran(!) and that there's more computing power in car door locks than in this space ship.
That's pretty remarkable.
