Are Euro rockets really that underpowered? I noticed the JUICE misison also somehow takes nine years to get to Jupiter and requires a bunch of retarded gravity assists, meanwhile the Europa Clipper launches on a Falcon 9 and only takes five years.
Can we just stop launching on crappy underpowered oldspace rockets and wasting everybody's time?
