Poor Steve Simonsen...oh my...did we ever get that ball back in the end?
No it collided with Collin Pillingers Beagle 2 mission to Mars, the european and British space agencies tried to sue United but when they saw who took that penalty kick all pursuant legal cases were dropped.
A spokeman for the European space agency at the time was quoted as saying
"Shitwasps happen, we could not envisage that happening...".
Simmo was then hired by NASA as use for a 1st stage boost system..
