内容記述 | The '90s promise to be an exciting decade for planetary exploration, providing a steady stream of challenges and discoveries stretching well into the 21st century. Four major planetary missions - Voyager, Magellan, Galileo, and Ulysses - are already in flight, while the Mars Observer, Comet Rendezvous/Asteroid Flyby, and Cassini missions are well along in their design, development, test, and evaluation phases and will launch in the early to mid-'90s. Studies continue for new missions such as Lunar Observer, Solar Probe, and Mars Environmental Survey, as well as for the space Exploration Initiative. Issues common to many of these missions - current and future - include budgetary concerns, launch vehicles, longer lifecycles, international cooperation, new technology developments, and multimission operations. |
