What is the point of *ANY* space mission but a manned mission to Mars?
Through the Cassini-Huygens Mission, we hope to gain a better understanding of the planet Saturn, its famous rings, its magnetosphere, its principal moon Titan and its other moons or "icy satellites."
Wrong planet, and you don't do a sh*t with optical telescope because Titan is covered under very thick haze high in its atmosphere.

Sorry guys, but I am not impressed at all. Gallelao (sp) has given me better images of the planet than this probe.
But for me, the average person..I want to spend my tax dollars else where.
Mars Express is 100% ESA project, Beagle was British "addition" to it.
Okay, it wasnt full scale, I can buy that, however, this is the second time the ESA has "piggy backed". Beagle anyone?
Yeah, why not to use all moneys to making as much nukes as possible and then launch full scale nuclear war and let this specie out of its misery.

And it's Galileo.
Yeah, like attacking to other countries.... or donating them to poor hands of military industry?
