Will this slow down Moon and Mars stuff?
It seems like a race is on to reach Venus. If Russia and China make enough noise it could make congress care.
SpaceX could launch probes "now." Rocketlab is 2023. Landers would still be a few more years unless they were really cheap.
Venus is the closest planet and we can get there nice and fast. ~20 months between launch windows and ~1 month of travel. Nothing like outer solar missions.
