    What do we get in return for spending $3.2 billion? A drone flying around on Titan snapping vacation pics?

    Typical vacation pics are something like pictures of the Grand Canyon
    one could have gotten for free off the internet. The pics dragon fly
    will take are not available anywhere.

    I think Dragonfly is a cool mission.
