If you were planning a budget, which amount would you use to record your income?

The engineer Lee is very well trained and has a lot of experience in the planetary field, therefore it is likely that he will decide to launch the project taking into account all the implications foreseen in the project.

Explanation:

JPL spent a lot of time "Identifying, measuring, and applying risk factors against the opportunity value and cost of failure" (VMware 2013). This methodology was a key process in deciding to launch or delay the launch of MBE.

The effects of JPL and NASA's past failures as well as the risk management program Lee implemented should be paramount in making and evaluating such an important decision.

Tests and tests as well as future predictions in error tests should keep the entire team attentive to what could happen and a possible plan B in case of technical failures.
