Was Java running the innards of that 40 million dollar Tonka Toy that went
brain dead on Mars 10 minutes after it landed?

Suggesting that hitting Mars much less landing safely on the surface is
trivial?
I don't know which systems Java was used in exactly... I just know it was
along for the ride.

Not at all.
The thing fscked up.
I'm just wondering if Java was what fscked it up.

I remember reading that at the time it happened. I would have thought the
navy would have used something much more stable for critical operations.
Also more secure, like OpenBSD or something. Also cluster them for fail
over. Using NT was stupid, could have been real bad if they failed in an
active combat war zone at sea.

NT Fail? What exactly do you know about Windows NT and its
stability/reliability?

They can say anything they want in their license. the question is whetehr
the courts will accept it.
Eg, a ski lift operator here even had a sign disclaiming responsibil8ity if
anything went wrong with the lifts. They were successfully sued then their
lift broken and injured a bunch of people.

Correct.
That's the old roller/ice skate rink analogy.
Every one of these places has a sign that they are not resposnible for
injuries.
True if some idiot who has never skated before tries a "Hammil Camel" and
breaks his neck due to completely to his own stupidity.
Maybe not so true if it can be proven that the ice was defective, dirty or
the rental skates were poor quality or that the owner didn't police the
riff raff and someone tossed a soda can under the poor bloke's skates in
the middle of his performance.
It all depends......
