Note that they will have to make 2 more trips for the prize if they
miss the 2 week window. Still better to delay then risk life, limb,
and the hardware.


They have to make at least two more trips for the prize regardless of
anything else, as they have yet to make a single qualifying flight.

How did this one not qualify?

Not high enough and did not carry 3 humans (although I think 2 of the
"passengers" can be weighted dummies.
