Space/Science » in reply to no space probe has even 1% of the analytical capabilities on Earth - It's that simple

No analytical facility on Earth would have access to 1% of the sample material that would be available in-situ.

As far as 1% of the analytical capability on Earth, every technique known to man currently in use is not needed.

Again, it's the old tradeoff.

You can know everything about something or something about everything.

One requires a physical ascent through an atmosphere and trip back to Earth, the other, some electricity for radio.
