Their point is that, unlike the Earth which has been bathed in strong solar energy and all kinds o, UT has been preserved in deep space since it formed.

“Ultima Thule”
Sounds like an Icelandic super model.

You're right, and I understand their point, but, early Earth was just like UT, but evolved into our current conditioned-for-life planet. So, when it comes to basic composition, Earth has more to study than UT. My guess is that, UT will not yield anything of significance that hasn't already been found through other deep-space probes and long-distance studies (like through telescopes and other methods); I'm not against going to space and studying whatever is out there; I'm just commenting on the hyperbole.

There was a lot less carping about what others did or didn’t post then too.
