In order to optimize solar system research, the NRC recommended a series of principal-investigator missions that encourage innovation and accomplish the main scientific objectives presented in the survey. Two of the five recommended missions have been selected and, as was also recommended in the survey, the NRC was asked in 2007 to provide criteria and guiding principles to NASA for determining the list of candidate missions. This book presents a review of eight missions: the three remaining from the original list of five from the survey plus five missions considered by the survey committee but which were not recommended. Included in the review of each mission is a discussion of relevant science and technology developments since the survey and set of recommended science goals. 606 $aAstronomy$xResearch 607 $aOuter space$xExploration$zUnited States 615 0$aAstronomy$xResearch. 676 $a919.904 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bSpace Studies Board. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972921703321 996 $aOpening new frontiers in space$94360091 997 $aUNINA
