Abstract

The purpose of this analysis is to present the design of the complete mission involving a dual spacecraft configuration that will analyse the rings of Saturn. The two spacecraft are an orbiter that will orbit at 142,000 km from the centre of Saturn, and a hovercraft that will hover at a distance of 2-3 km fromSaturn its rings...
