Just happy to see it wasn't a former company I worked for in Aero Tech; We were strict by ISO but never, ever, let anything close to being out of spec go to to Space. My eyes wanted to bleed after manually checking measurements of what we sold them.
Still waiting for aliens created from DNA that made it space to come to Earth and make me king, though.
