Well, we live in a world where you can send movies from Peking to Helsinki
on a 100 grams device.... and complain about their quality. What do you
expect?
This being said, I agree wholeheartedly with you: being on Titan in my
lifetime (sorry for the egocentric view) is outstanding, and the data
returned so far hints at an extraordinary world.
How well it will be received in a world full of multi megapixel color
images remains to be seen: that's why I hope what the real scientists
derive of it will be well publicized and even (sorry) hyped.
