I'd be willing to bet they'll take money to
recover the data anyway :)
The whole article stinks a bit of "gimme gimme gimme". The bit about
needing to rescue a hundred or so tapes is also suspect. A hundred nine
track tapes would contain more data than all the Pioneers, and all other
probes, sent - by a couple orders of magnitude.
