[QUOTE="damhy, post: 89287, member: 181680"] Look its quite obvious that you are impressed by the efforts, I understand the complexities of completing such a mission and for what it was, it was a great success. But for the fact that they knew the misson was so big timewise, I personally (and it looks like I'm not alone - DaDragon) feel that what we got out of it at the end of the day was good but not amazing. Maybe the project is a victim of its own success, the fact that it got there in one piece and working perfectly with such a low possibility of success makes it look like something that is relatively easy and therefore makes a few hundred low res black and white images seem like it was all a bit pointless. If it had seemed more difficult and didnt pick up a signal to get some suspense, just getting a message back would have seemed like winning the lotto jackpot, but the fact that everything went according to plan, in my opinion means they should have made the most of the once in a lifetime trip. Sorry to keep going on the same point, we have both made our point of views clear, and obviously its something that we can just go over and over again, and will never agree, but I need to keep typing cos the cold is making my fingers cease up.
