While the exact nature of the issue has not been publicly disclosed, speculation within the space community suggests that it could involve [Possible issue speculation, e.g., a problem with the propulsion system or a communication failure].

What the hell is this nonsense? The article is so generically written like someone prompted an AI to write a template article to speculate.

An AI wouldn't make mistakes like this. This sort of screwup requires a human touch.

It was just the first article on the topic I found that seemed somewhat coherent. But yeah, quality journalism is really hard to come by these days.

I think you might be right. Another article by the same author seems like it could be entirely made up, only citing Wikipedia for things like the definition of the word 'confidence'. I don't know what would prompt it to leave these 'fill in the blank' sections though.
