In the 90's, NASA launched the Mars Climate Orbiter probe to study Mars. However, a navigational issue created a problem with the mission and caused the craft to overshoot its target, causing NASA to lose a $125 million dollar project. What caused the issue? First to answer correctly wins 30 runes!
Has anyone answered this yet? Yes, I'm that lazy that I didn't read back through the pages. How technical do I have to be? (ie, do I have to quote the Wiki page? :P)

The communication software was using imperial measurements-things instead of metric. Oops.

hyjin 10-11-2015 12:21 PM

Yes it was already answered

Sorry for the delay guys! Back to winning those runes!

Everyone knows the communist revolutionary turned post-mortem capitalist t-shirt endorser Che Guevara, but not everyone knows his actual first name (probably because it's not as catchy as "Che" =P). What is his real first name, and what does "Che" mean? First person to answer correctly wins 30 runes!

That's really cool of you to do, Salone. :3

Weeeeell you know, learn some trivia, polish those investigatory skills and earn some runes on the way, Runes that I feel I should stress can be used for some amazing items that are currently coming through the pipeline. Eventually the Rune rewards will end, but I'll keep it going through items and aurum and such.

That's awesome to hear. I still think we have one of the best communities out there. *nods*

I shall try before work.

Ernesto Rafael Guevara de la Serna
I figured if this was trivia I would just post his full name :P sorry...

I guess the meaning depends on where you want it to come from.

Quote:

Che "friend" and thus loosely corresponds to expressions such as "mate", "pal", "man", "bro", or "dude", as used by various English speakers.

Nothing to be sorry about! I'm actually quite proud. Especially for the "Che" bit and how it had multiple variations, and you took the context of his name to find the appropriate one. Good show Obsidian! Runes for you!

Yay thank you. I actually read it all too. I love learning new things :3

Aaaaaaand that's why I do it!

Okay! New question, new chance to win some runes. Let's see...

In 1912, a presidential hopeful is about to give a campaign speech. However, he is shot with a .32 caliber pistol. After the shooter is subdued, the candidate determines that his wound is not life threatening and proceeds to give his speech while still bleeding. Who was this person? Hint: He had previously already been a president before.

First person to get it right wins 30 runes!

Sei 10-11-2015 08:18 PM

Ooh, I know! President Washlincosivelt!

CupcakeDolly 10-11-2015 08:53 PM

Oh shit, I read about this in a Cracked article, I think...
I'm going to say it was the most badass prez ever, Mr. Theodore Roosevelt?
