| 内容記述 | The April 1989 Magellan (MGN) Mission to Venus will initiate a new phase in the exploration of the solar system. In addition to being the first U.S. planetary mission in 10.5 years, it will also be the first such mission to use the Space Shuttle and IUS 2-Stage as launch vehicles. Upon arrival at Venus the spacecraft will begin a systematic mapping of the surface of that planet using side-looking SAR. This paper discusses some of the interesting trade-offs in mission design for this mission in the areas of launch and injection, interplanetary cruise, Venus Orbit insertion, and mapping. The Magellan mapping strategy is discussed briefly along with a few special experiments being considered for the MGN extended mission. |
