      I first heard this joke (or some following the same format anyways) in the MST3K episode for “Overdrawn at the Memory Bank.” I think about it pretty often.

    The issue was later found to be from sunlight streaming into the spacecraft through a tiny gap.

    This would be so frustrating. The problem solving process would be a nightmare.

      And how do you work it out when the object is in space. Even if you had a copy, it might not have the same gaps.
