   There's a point where you do a go/no-go check.  I'm pretty sure that   
   you can find this in the Apollo transcripts (and video/audio where   
   that's available).  How close that is to landing depends on your   
   ability to abort a landing; Apollo would have had to abort with the   
   Descent Stage still attached, because AIUI you couldn't drop the   
   descent stage very quickly.   
      
   But I'm having trouble coming up with a scenario where you're going to   
   use a lot more fuel than you calculated before departing the Gateway.   
      
   (reverse the sequence if you have in situ fuel preparation mining the   
   ice in the shadows)

   The presence of this syntax results from the fact that SQLite is really   
   a Tcl extension that has escaped into the wild.
