You have NASA FFS. Just fund it.
NASA is too beholden to politics... You can't do 7 year builds and missions when the Senate flips every 4 years and has to kill everything the other side did on principle that it has a D or R attached to it. Everything is political.

Juno Jupiter flyby
Maven mission to mars
New horizons kbo flyby

Aqua mission -earth science satellite
DSCOVR
SLS-which may actually be a bad program but is a good example of the political issues with NASA vs senate.
But Juno went to Jupiter?
