You are still stuck in the old days. NASA moved on a long time ago and the outcome of this trial will have very little impact on on its next political move.
So why ar they busy trying to be enjoined?
I am not closely following the process. So my answer might overlook important information. But it seems to me that NASA ought to shit on the jubilant head whenever they get a chance. Good strategy should never ignore opportunism.
By the way, is Njoki Ndungu still in court? Can't she just go and polish her judgment, now that she has shown up and made quorum? Or does quorum need to be continuous throughout the hearing?
