Zurbuchen: Schedule is the most vital variable in planetary space missions
“So often for planetary mission. Schedule is the most important variable because the planets need to be in the right place in the sky. So I can't take longer. I can only either go this year or two years from now to Mars, for example.”

Treating Mars as a backup planet will inevitably ruin Mars too
“It probably makes a lot more sense to try to take care of this planet and not screw it up than to treat Earth as being disposable and say, oh, it's okay, we're gonna go, we'll have Mars. Because if you keep thinking that way, you're gonna screw Mars up too.”
