It had all sorts of problems, the AI was bugged and the digital camera ended up being oriented away from the asteroid it was suppose to fly by and take pictures. But I think it is cool how they had to patch the software on Earth and wait a few minutes/hours before the upload was complete and waited more to get results. That would be too much down time for me.
I had an economics professor who always mentioned the Simpsons in his lectures and used it to ask questions on his exams. He even held little programs every semester claiming what he learned about economics from the Simpsons. Pretty interesting and funny.
