  1. MISSION PLANNING WORKING GROUP-ROADMAP-Technology Needs DiscussionMay 20, 2008 Ted Tarbell Lockheed Martin Solar & Astrophysics Lab

  2. Question to Address Acknowledging that new discoveries in Heliophysics are often driven by the utilization of emerging and enabling technologies, what is needed in the areas of: • mission implementation (e.g. launch vehicles, spacecraft locations, etc.) • data acquisition / instrumentation (e.g. remote sensing detectors, in-situ measurements, etc.) • transmission (e.g. telemetry, recording, etc.) • analysis (e.g. data environments, virtual observatories, modeling, etc.)

  3. What’s in the 2006 Roadmap (1 of 3) • Heliophysics capability requirements • Simultaneous sampling of space plasmas at multiple points…cost-effective…higher resolution • Achieving unique vantage points such as upstream of L1, solar polar orbit… • Developing the next generation of capable, affordable instrumentation • Enabling the return of vast new data sets from anywhere in the solar system • Synthesizing understanding from system-wide measurements using new data analysis & visualization techniques

  4. What’s in the 2006 Roadmap (2 of 3) • Heliophysics Technology Needs • Developing compact low-cost spacecraft and launchers • Achieving high V propulsion (solar sails) • Building the next generation of instrumentation • Returning & assimilating large data sets from across the solar system • Analysis, data synthesis, modeling & visualization of plasma & neutral space environments… • Enabling space weather prediction

  5. What’s in the 2006 Roadmap (3 of 3)

  6. Breakout Session • Meet by discipline • List technology needs for each category • Mission implementation • Data acquisition / Instrumentation • Transmission • Analysis • Any other categories needed? • Time permitting, open mike on proposed missions or instruments or anything
