A few thoughts:
<ul>
<li>Shit happens. There is absolutely no way to prevent all badnesses, period. That's why we have insurance.
<li>Failures sometimes happen through lack of enforcement, not lack of procedures.
<li>The procedure that requires a new procedure for every failure is, itself, a failure.
<li>If the loss of a single satellite is such a major disaster, then maybe making satellites should be made cheaper. I personally like working in industries where a 1-5% failure rate is not only expected, but hoped for.
</ul>

My criteria for good software:
<ol>
<li>Does it work?
<li>Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
</ol>
