assuming USD1,442,000 1997$ /4.09 = 1965$ ~380000, using a CPI of 409.52%
Added up ~410k, probably need to subtract some more for costs that went into facilities and delta hardware. Otherwise close enough.

The Huygens lander was funded entirely by ESA with $500 millions, or at least that's my understanding. Its development is therefore not included in the program costs by NASA alone, if that's the problem.

These will need to be added to the parts JSON files in order to take effect. This will require some simple work so I will close this, but I created a new branch with the changes:
