  1. Cosmic Vision Process2015-2025 • Cosmic Vision 2015 –2025 process launched on 2 April 04 with call for Science themes • June 04: deadline for proposal submission • July 04: Analysis of responses by the ESA Science advisory bodies (AWG, SSWG, FPAG, SSAC) • 15-16 September 04: Workshop in Paris (~400 participants) • Nov 04: progress report to SPC • Spring 05: presentation of Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 to community • May 05: Final Presentation of Cosmic Vision to SPC • Oct 05: Publication of final report • early 2006: call for mission proposals? • Phase A 2007 • Phase B 2008 • launch 2015

  2. Proposal Evaluation • Astronomy/Astrophysics (AWG) • Fundamental Physics (FPAG) • Solar System Science (SSWG) • Space Science Advisory Committee (SSAC)

  3. Grand Themes • What are the conditions for life and planetary formation? • How does the Solar System work? • What are the fundamental laws of the Universe? • How did the Universe originate and what is it made of?

  4. How to implement • Think programmes not missions for cost effective science • Rosetta -> MEX -> VEX (not planned) • BepiColombo -> SolO (planned) -> SPO -> IHP • NIRI -> FIRI XEUS -> GRI • Consider investment as a priority in strategic technologies • RTG • Deep space coms • Solar Sails•Radiation hard (1 Mrad) components • Invest early in key payload areas • ASIC’s (analogue/digital hybrids) • Highly integrated payload suites • Novel Low mass deployable Optics • Formation flying • Constellation control • Common GNC and metrology • Standard SVM

  5. NEWS: Ministers agreed that ESA's science programme will receive €2.1bn over the next five years, which is what the agency had asked for. This means that funding for science will rise by 2.5% per year, keeping it in line with inflation. Previously the science budget had remained flat and there was therefore "an erosion of buying power" in ESA speak. ESA spokesman Franco Bonacina says that the Bepi-Colombo mission to Mercury, due to take off in 2012 but which some had feared may be axed, should now be safe. ESA Budget • loan reimbursement • GAIA, BepiColumbo, LISA envelopes • JWST launcher
