I'm glad the ESA is getting its day in the sun (pun intended).
To steal from Joe Biden: 'this is a big fucking deal'. Why? Because, first, we've never gotten this amount of detail from a comet before, and second, because it's different.
Being different is good. To a large extent ESA's Galileo is a ripoff/copy of the USA's GPS. But not this. It's not a Mars lander or a flyby of the outer planets, both of which NASA has already done. It's something else. It's new scientific research, which will lead to new discoveries and new theories.
