Pretend you are a NASA executive or a legislator. Design a new mission in our solar system.    Pick any object in the system and decide whether you want to send an orbiter, a lander, a    rover, some combination or those, a manned mission, or something else. What interests you about    this object? What science questions can we answer? In basic terms, what kind of scientific    instruments might you want to include on your mission? Justify your decisions with what you    know about the scientific method, astronomy techniques, and the object itself from this class.
