Yeah, unfortunately.

They’re a popularity based branch. You gotta clap to keep them alive.

Sure, but that headline is there for Business Insider's benefit. If it helps Nasa, cool. But I don't think Business Insider cares about what Nasa is doing beyond the fact that it may drive traffic to them.

Yes. If they were quoting Nasa saying "We needed this win," I would stand corrected. But nope. It's BI using the term "win."

Let me know if I have to repeat myself again.

It’s not clickbait, it’s language.

They have an entire section on this and explain it, it isn’t really hyperbole.

Had they not mentioned or explained the language they used then I’d agree.
