XMM-Newton will celebrate its 10th anniversary in December 2009. With about 300 refereed papers published each year, XMM-Newton is one of the most successful scientific missions of ESA ever. With the launch of XMM-Newton and Chandra for the first time X-ray high resolution spectrometers were made available for the astrophysical community. XMM-Newton has the potential to continue operations for another decade. Based on simple statistical consideration in comparisons to the instrument performance and celestial X-ray sources we try to estimate the potential exploration and discovery space for RGS observations and compare it with the performed observations. We conclude that only about 50% of the potentially interesting targets are observed today.
