@bestamerica

The US could never afford such a mission on its own. Like it or not, the US, Russia and Europe are in it together for future space exploration. Possibly even China one day-after all, they have a moon landing planned in the 2020's.

@Themastercode1235 Missing something that a person said doesn't make you an idiot. It happens all the time T_T. I'm not gonna argue with you.

[BritneyAddicted4EVA]

Yes but my point was its not possible. I know its fictional. In Earths atmosphere they use jet's thrust or rocket thrust to push against the air; which is why planes move. Same is with birts, they push against the air. Space is empty. That type of engine is completely useless UNLESS they create some sort of support to thrust agains. Otherwise they have to use Earth's gravity and careful calculations to go to Jupiter. And how do they get back? With rockets, they don't.

@cakecrumb095 my god theres a lot of idiots here. does anyone listen to what the people say. there landing on jupiters moon io.

[Themastercode1235]

@BritneyAddicted4EVA and wow, this must be pretty convicing for somone to beleve its real. its accutaly a fictional science fact film. and why would they use rockets in space. there using nuclear rockets. but the ship mainly controlled by solar power. its pretty stupid for them to eject the pannels. they need them on the way back. oh, sorry im babbling.
