I really wish that we would get going on missions to some of the more interesting moons in our solar system.

Europa could have a subsurface ocean of water.

Titan has methane lakes and an atmosphere of nitrogen, and plenty of complex organic compounds.

Io is covered in volcanoes.

Enceladus has a possible subsurface water ocean, internal heat, and releases plumes of water, methane, and CO2.

Every one of these could bring discoveries as interesting as those found on Mars.
