I've started a new blog on this topic at http://futureplanets.blogspot.com/
This blog supplements UMSF by allowing on topic discussions that include politics and other topics not appropriate here. The first entry is up with some additional news on the MSL funding and schedule problems. -------------------- |

I can't see that anyone else has reported this: ESA have today announced the four shortlisted mission candidates for the M3 medium-class mission for launch around 2022.
Marco Polo, which narrowly lost out in the competition for consideration for an earlier M1 or M2 mission slot, is through again. Also of planetary science interest is exoplanet-characterization mission EChO. It doesn't look like ESA are going to provide a full list of the 47 submitted proposals, but I understand that there were many planetary proposals submitted. |
