What is it specifically that makes Americans so much smarter and more scientifically capable than literally all of Europe? Better universities? More diversity?

The best of the best of every nation on that peninsula failed yet again to compete with the USA. Obama is talking about manned missions to the Red Planet by the 2030s, and all of Europe can't even land a simple robot. Embarrassing.

no

yes

>>66358467
you import all the brightest mind from all over the world. Your success is due to brain-draining other countries.
American education is shit thugh and peole who grow up in America are dumb
>>
>>66358467
We pump billions and billions of dollars to NASA. I'm sure the Europeans are capable, but lack and unlimited supply of funding.
>>
>>66358467
don't be a dick.

We have had many many failure's, including losing drones and probes and shit, we just kept trying.

Persistence is all we got on them. So maybe they'll need another 2 or 3 attempts before they succeed.

The orbiter thing is a success, will make next landings easier fosho

>American education is shit
Please stop with this myth, it is objectively better than every nation in Europe's. Nobody is smarter than American intellectuals, they are the best on the planet.
>>
the next lander will be designed using imperial measurements so it'll probably do better, you just wait and see
turns out the metric system is fine for normal things like weighing apples in a store but for science you really need the imperial units
>>
>>66358578
didn't you read my post?
your top universities are the best, because you import smarters people from all over the wolrd, and pay them tons of money.
Meanwhile, your average education is third world tier
>>
>>66358602
this confuse's the american greatly.

Metric was designed and explained to me as being created for science and people to use across all countries, even NASA translated all of their notes into both.
>>
>>66358632
You clearly could not cut it at an American university because you are too dumb to look up admission statistics and demographies at our superior schools. Again, repeating this myth only highlights your unfamiliarity with the planet's elite intellectual circles, which clearly you are too stupid to join.

Funding or rather government willing to spend money on research makes all the difference
>>
>>66358701
>>66358632
both of you are being dicks.

Were not all genius's or idiots, we have the best colleges yes but on average our school's vary based on funding in the region and to BOOT, japan, chine, etc have the best average intellectual for pre-university schools.

So how is that "free" education working out for you?

>The ExoMars mission is conducted by the ESA in corroboration with Russia’s Roscosmos.
>Russia

Mars and Russia don't get along.

Many of their Martian probes have failed.

The most recent one prior to this failed to leave earth orbit.

They blamed it on NASA saying we had jammed their signals.

>American education is shit thugh and peole who grow up in America are dumb
Yes all of the U.S. tech companies were created and led by dumb Americans. All U.S. inventions and patents were also created by dumb Americans.

Face it your interpretation of Americans is based on memorization for standardized tests and an intentionally ignorant lower class. None of it is based on the actual cognitive abilities of the population who is not ignorant.
>>
>Russia decides to be generous and helps euroshits with their delusions that they can into space
>delivers euroshit probe to Mars without a hitch
>euroshits completely fuck their part up
And that is why you never ever collaborate with europeans, kids. They can't do anything right. Stick to something less complicated, Europe.

American arrogance and hubris is what makes us so fucking great.

How will you ever recover?

>>66361091
You did when you landed that Mars rover a few years ago. It's just a different situation because this is just some pan-continental money drain, not some national program that we feel some kind of patriotic pride in. Space exploration needs to be privatised anyway teebeeaytch.

Europeans are so hasty tawty about their supposed intellectual superiority over others that they end up having their heads up their arses.
