Hope - Naval Research Laboratory</h4> <h2> Abstract </h2> Future space missions are being planned to satisfy the faster, cheaper and better philosophy. This paper is a how-to-guide for planning an asteroid mission which requires low energy (cheaper) and returns a maximum amount of science (better). Short term planning and execution of a mission is crucial to satisfy the cheaper aspect of a mission. Mission design methodology for constructing a low cost multiple asteroid flyby mission is given and example missions are presented. <P><A HREF="http://www.space-flight.org/AAS_meetings/1998_winter/sessions.html">Back</A>
