P3E is a HEO with the same engine as P3D and no benefactor funding a launch. It seems more reasonable to focus on projects that we can pay to launch or where someone has already donated the launch.

I know AMSAT has had it's issues over it's long history, and we are all disappointed that HEOs seem to be almost out of reach for us now. We are all human and we all make mistakes, especially when it involves rocket engines, building spacecraft on hobby store budgets, and getting all past our benefactor launch agency trials and schedules.
If "HEOs seem to be almost out of reach for us now" what we should do next? no more false illusions about geo sat's and so on just get back on earth and focused on how to help P3E and our German friend.
