ESA funding a space penetrator, a science missile to bombard planets and moons

2013-07-15 20:15:31| Extremetech

We can land men on the Moon, land rovers on Mars, and send probes off to the farthest reaches of the Solar System. Unfortunately, everything is very expensive, and we generally can't land multiple robots on distant celestial bodies, much less a single one. However, with the UK's space penetrator, we could inexpensively bombard a planet with sensors and instruments.
