Seems than planetary science gets more coverage here but just decided to add this topic since an Atlas V 401 was just selected.
What can be inferred from this selection? |

Future Discovery and Mars Scout missions will face increased launch costs if they have to buy an Atlas 5 or Delta 4 instead a Delta 2 7925. Here's hoping that Falcon 9 will be successful and reliable. Higher mass margins than a Delta 2 7925 at lower cost would be a boon for future Discovery / Mars Scout missions.
