    I’m amazed it’s that cheap. Really puts a different perspective on dollar amounts I read in headlines if look at them in terms of how many missions to titan it could have been.

        It’s already triple the price. The original budget for the mission was on the order of a billion dollars, it was a New Frontiers mission and missions of that class aren’t supposed to go over that limit.

        I appreciate the science NASA manages to get done, but there is something seriously wrong with that agency’s budgeting process and has been for decades.
