Elementary School Kids Explore the Moon At Close Range

In TFA, it was stated that

"based on the premise that if your average picture is worth a thousand words, then a picture from lunar orbit may be worth a classroom full of engineering and science degrees,' said Maria Zuber, GRAIL mission principal investigator"

I am trying not to rain on their parade, but...

Based on the societal structure now, wall street bankers, stock brokers and all those who work in financial industries are raking in multi-Giga-bucks

On the other hand, how much are engineers, principal investigators, scientists making?

And based on the social pecking order --- the engineers, scientists, principal investigators have to kow tow to those with $$$

Let's face it: Science and Engineering aren't hot anymore
