"Think slow," on the other hand, evolved later, during the time humans first began to develop language, and it represents our capacity for long-term rational thought.

The workshop also tackled the issue of large-scale missions -- or, as the moderator of the high-profile mission panel, John Klineberg, called them, "all-in" missions, which are riskier than small or medium-class missions like the Explorer program. Kennel said that it appears that these missions perhaps demand a far greater risk management commitment than their less risky counterparts, and future decadal surveys could be encouraged to explicitly assign a risk acceptance level to the survey recommendations.
