Euclid isn't an achievement?

0 comments

For the money we pump into it, it's not much of an achievement. We didn't even launch it.

And SpaceX didn't build it... Strong statement so of calling Euclid not much of an achievement after it being up there for a couple of days only.

I am honetely to lazy to look up a list of ESA space missions for you, Wikipedia might have a decent overview so.

Again my complaint is not the end result isn't "impressive" in isolation it's that it's not impressive for the amount of time and money dumped into it compared to any other space program on earth. I said "for the money we pump into it".
