James-Webb-Teleskop trifft auf Probleme beim Sonnenschutz
@Spacerat: nachtanken ist theoretisch möglich, die Anschlüsse und Markierungen für eine "Tanksonde" sind nachgerüstet worden vor dem Start.

Though a human servicing mission is not feasible for JWST, NASA did make one small design tweak in case the agency wants to give the telescope a tuneup someday. Included on the back of JWST are stickers in the shapes of crosses. They're meant to serve as targets, to help guide a potential robotic spacecraft visitor to JWST in the future. Over the last decade, various space companies have been working on "servicing satellites," designed to catch up with satellites already in space and grab hold of them, either to refuel their tanks or to tweak aging components. It's possible that one day, NASA may want to send a servicing satellite to JWST to add more propellant to the telescope's tanks, extending its time in space. If that happens, the targets will provide a reference point for where the visiting spacecraft should attach to fill up JWST's tank.

Teure Türstopper: Firmware-Update schrottet Samsung-Soundbars
Erinnert an die Geschichte als Samsung weltweit BluRay Player und AV Receiver lahmgelegt hatte. Abhilfe war damals auch nur Einschicken zum Service. Allerdings damals auch für Geräte außerhalb der Garantie kostenlos. Ich war auch betroffen und seit der Reparatur darf die Kiste nicht mehr ins Internet.
