http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/apio/pdf/mar...m_synthesis.pdf is a good one What would appear to be the most obvious change to the current mars roadmap is pushing MSL back to '11 - but flying two - bring the '11 Scout forward to '09 and still fly the telecoms orbiter in '09 Benefits - more time to perfect or redesign the Skycrane, assured comms ability with Telecoms orbiter already in situ - and perhaps an chance to fly an MER copy as the '09 Scout instead as a literal 'scout' for the second MSL. Obviously Bruce was at some interesting meetings on the same subject - and isnt saying mutch (yet ) but of the multiple roadmaps presented - that to me would be the obvious call Doug |
