   Everything I've ever read about software engineering says that NASA has   
   one of the best software development processes in the world.  The idea   
   that you could diagnose a crashed box from 100,000,000 miles away is   
   amazing.  The planning and conservative design work that makes that   
   possible is absolutely mind-blowing.   
      
   As for "get it done on time", well, you thought you had deadline   
   pressure?  If my code is late, my company's quarterly numbers will   
   suffer, but as long as things are not too bad, we'll get it released   
   next quarter.  If the planets aren't lined up right, the mission is a   
   no-go.  Miss your launch window, and it may be a very long time before   
   you get to try again.
