A lot has been said about saving money by reusing existing hardware and/or technology. Was any this done during the development of Rosetta?
Yes, much of the technology used for Rosetta is standard space technology, which means that it has been used already in other missions and will certainly be used again in the future. Some technologies were first developed specially for Rosetta, and have since been used on Mars Express and will be used again on Venus Express.
