Falcon rocket during the SpaceX CRS mission exploded almost minutes after launch. Unfortunately the Dragon capsule's cargo worth approximately million which was to be delivered to the ISS could not be recovered. Elon Musk in his statements indicated that the capsule could have been recovered if the software had issued commands to open the parachute during the incident That is probably the saddest thing about this is that with just a bit of different software.
Dragon would have made it.

There were then communication problems with the rover which was not sending any data and was observed to restart times over three days. It turned out that as information was collected the amount of memory used increased more and more.
Sola the memory block was full and the reboot process stopped due to the inability to read the system files. Engineers had previously considered potential problems caused by operating the rover for long periods of time but conducted the test by simulating only salts. Fortunately we managed to format the memory and update the software so that the rover could successfully continue working. Conclusions and recommendations issues perceived as low priority may turn out to be crucial to the success of the mission carrying out complete load and overload tests tests in conditions as close as possible to the production environment Synchronization problems Mars Pathfinder.
