I'll agree an orbital mission to Neptune/Triton should come before an orbiting mission to Pluto or anything else in the Kuiper Belt and that N/T combined is more interesting than P/C combined. Come to think of it wouldn't an orbital mission to Pluto burn fuel rapidly just to maintain orbit with constant tugs from Chiron? Still want to see the first mission to Pluto to proceed though. Don't see a point for an Enceladus mission as opposed to an Europan one, but I am anxious to see what Cassini learns about it.
Do you think there is any possibility Cassini can enter Titan orbit on an extended mission? Cassini's website used to mention that possibility, but Ralph Lorenz told me mission changes may have ruled it out.

Mark
