I'm talking about a big headline mission to survey everything in the vicinity of the outer 2 smaller gas giants. Think Cassini or Galileo (too bad about that antena). Sure these missions take a long time. Means we have to start today so our kids can see the results.
All 4 gas giants have plenty of moons with places to land. But I'm not even talking that far out in the future. I just want a suite of scientific instruments in a wide orbit around a gas giant surveying every moon they can get near.
Grvity assist slingshot opportunities to get to the outer giants don't come along every decade and yet when one does come up the proposed mission opportunity and it's budget gets instead allocated to yet another damn mars rover.
