Abstract

We advocate for a mission concept study for a space telescope dedicated to solar system science in Earth orbit. Such a study was recommended by the Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Science (CAPS) report "Getting Ready for the Next Planetary Science Decadal Survey." The Mid-Decadal Review also recommended NASA to assess the role and value of space telescopes for planetary science. The need for high-resolution, UV-Visible capabilities is especially acute for planetary science with the impending end of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST); however, NASA has not funded a planetary telescope concept study, and the need to assess its value remains. Here, we present potential design options that should be explored to inform the decadal survey.

用于太阳系科学的空间望远镜的结构与技术

我们提倡在地球轨道上研究用于太阳系科学的太空望远镜的任务概念。天体生物学和行星科学委员会(CAPS)的报告《为下一次行星科学十年调查做好准备》推荐了这样一项研究。《十年中期评估》还建议NASA评估太空望远镜在行星科学中的作用和价值。随着哈勃太空望远镜(HST)即将结束，对高分辨率、紫外可见能力的需求对行星科学来说尤其迫切;然而，美国宇航局还没有资助行星望远镜概念研究，评估其价值的必要性仍然存在。在这里，我们提出了应该探索的潜在设计方案，以便为十年调查提供信息。
