Reading this makes me think NASA should be funding, and researching, going full in R&D on near future propulsion rather than designing probes/rovers/helicopters that will take a decade or more to reach the outer planet

Why not design the engines and spacecraft to shorten the trip significantly and THEN design/build the probes/landers/rovers to send there? It's completely backwards and asinine right now, how little funding and manpower goes into near future engine design, production and testing right now at NASA
