Sure - and that goes for all of us. But the OP said

"I love to use the NASA Landsat as an example of how LC is not just a hobbyist's
language!"

and I would draw the line at promoting a quick hack as our example of anything.
Granted the software under the hood is probably impressive, but the retro 1995
UI is pretty yawn-inspiring. I wouldn't point to that interface if I were trying
to rally support. NASA could use some better PR folks, and I think the
KickStarter project wouldn't benefit much from highlighting this example unless
it just talked about it and didn't show it.
