I'm 49 and will be 50 in January. With the success of New Horizons, being the first humans to ever see Pluto is mind blowing, I was wondering if I/we will ever see a probe or exploration of Uranus and Neptune? Are there any plans for exploring these two planets in the near future?
Thanks, James Sontag -------------------- Axes Grind and Maces Clash!

Recent material on mission studies for Uranus and Neptune.
Fact chart on the Oceanus mission: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/opag/meetings/aug2...sters/Elder.pdf More comprehensive presentation on the status of mission studies done at JPL: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/opag/meetings/aug2.../Hofstadter.pdf I just hope to see one of these missions in my lifetime. These are amazing worlds in the own right. |
