Anyone else feel as if the title and first few paragraphs give more credit to SpaceX rather than the Euclid team?
SpaceX launches things all the time; I feel Euclid is the impressive bit here.

If you don’t want to hear about spacex don’t read the articles mentioning the launches and wait for the ones about the satellite coming online.
Credit for what? For launching or for doing the dark matter & energy research?
While I think is appropriately and accurately attributed, I just don’t think it is relevant to the scientific story what rocket launched the apparatus. But I don’t know that space.com is the paragon of scientific reporting either.
But it's also weird that rocket launches themselves into orbit become so common they are almost not news.
I also start to wonder if anyone calculated or cared what the environment impact might to go from a few launches per year to a hundred or hundreds per year.
I mean it's Florida and they are planning to pave radioactive road material so not exactly concerned about the future so feds have to be the grownups.
