What's about capability per dollar of cost? KEPLER (a great instrument) can't boast this - "...this whole mission has an end-to-end budget of $10 million Canadian, or $7 million US.", can it?

Certainly not knocking MOST - it was a really cool mission, and we should do more in that buget range.

And that budget was before the first Falcon 9 landed back to be reused.
