Abstract :
Earth-Sun System activities within the National Aeronautics and Space Administration are science-driven and technology-enabled. NASA has developed a process for matching science needs and technologies that includes a set of notional mission concepts. This document summarizes the most recent output of that process: a notional set of science objectives, technology requirements, and measurement/mission concepts stretching beyond the time horizon of current plans. The materials can be a valuable resource in efforts to sketch out the future of Earth-Sun science and applications from space
