Abstract

This chapter reviews for each province and destination of the Solar System the representative space missions that will have to be designed and implemented by 2061 to address the six key science questions about the diversity, origins, workings, and habitability of planetary systems (described in Chapter 1) and to perform the critical observations that have been described in Chapter 3 and partly Chapter 2. It derives from this set of future representative missions, some of which will have to be flown during the 2041–61 period, the critical technologies and supporting infrastructures that will be needed to fly these challenging missions, thus laying the foundation for the description of technologies and infrastructures for the future of planetary exploration that is given in Chapters 5 and 6 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 , respectively.
