This is all well and good, but the big question remains: what is NASA trying to accomplish with PROMISE beyond getting a "win"? What is it trying to accomplish, and is it worth drawing down limited stockpiles of Pu-238 and using our spare RTG to do so?

“Got carried away” is when you have one too many at Friday drinks. Not when you spend hundreds of millions of dollars, use a platform to spread misinformation, continually participate in global election interference, and vilify minorities. Oh, and bringing pain, suffering and death to millions.
