A handbrake turn would tell for sure…
Would it make a difference ?
The NASA twitter seems to be saying that it is just one part of the process, that you unfold (done) and then secure (next step).

How ? Remotely, if a sensor is fucked or the mirror isn’t in position, what options do they have ?
P:resumable if the sensor is fucked but the mirror is in position then they don’t have a problem.
If the sensor isn’t fucked and the mirror isn’t in posistion then they do have a problem.
Quite a difference.

A number.
But if the sensor is fucked, then how do you fix it ?
Likewise, if the mirror isn’t in position, how do you fix it ?
Visa-a-vis what’s the difference ?
If the only function of the sensor was to tell you that the mirror was in position then in a way it doesn’t matter if it is or isn’t working.
The mirror is either OK or it isn’t.
If the mirror is in position then it doesn’t matter if the sensor is fucked.
Just heard on the news that NASA are saying all is ok
No mention of sensor.
When I get a few minutes I will have a look at the NASA website

This was what generated the initial question.
Just spoke to a friend about it, and they are saying that, all secondary data is says it is locked, so a bad sensor.
