I thought that it was time to start a new thread devoted to the JUNO Jupiter
Orbiter mission. This New Frontiers Mission #2 seems to be a "stealth" project with little information available on the Web. In fact, the official NASA JUNO web site is quite pitiful. It contains the minimal amount of information on what seems to be an intriguing mission, in terms of both science and engineering. Does the UMSF community have information on this mission that has not been widely seen before? Another Phil |

NASA awards Atlas V contract for Juno: I was going to say something about this being "An excellent choice" since NASA and Lockheed Martin have had such brilliant success with the Atlas V in the past. New Horizons and MRO launches were nearly flawless. But apparently Atlas V had its first hick-up last June with an NRO Reconnaissance Satellite. Too much of the important information is classified, however, and the launch has been deemed a "partial success". Nonetheless, I'm still willing to give [knock on wood] the Atlas V team the benefit of the doubt. http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewnews.html?id=1222 |
