This seems worthy of a new topic now that we have a higher level in the board
 Alan has told us that such a mission is possible and could be launched in 2008-2009. There has already been some press coverage of the idea in this Space.com article Some initial thoughts on what could be discussed here: What changes should be made to the NH science objectives? The new mission trajectory, a Uranus encounter? What changes should be made to the original NH design? How to sell the mission to NASA. -------------------- |
