36. What are the chances of a failed flight? (A K2S Question)

From The Space Library

There are different definitions of flight failure. There is mission failure, launch abort, and some failures of equipment on the spacecraft. It depends upon which type of failure is intended. Again, if failure is considered an unexpected occurrence, then those happen all the time without necessarily leading to an adverse consequence.
