DUGWAY PROVING GROUND, Utah - A daring plan to have helicopters snag a space capsule as it plunged toward Earth went awry Wednesday when its parachutes failed to open and it slammed into the desert floor.    The catastrophic descent left the Genesis capsule buried halfway underground and exposed its collection of solar atoms to contamination...
