Abstract

The Deep Space Mission System, (DSMS) Science Operations Concept describes the vision for facilitating the use of the DSMS, particularly the Deep Space Network (DSN) for direct science observations in the areas of radio astronomy, planetary radar, radio science and VLBI. scientific research is inherently an innovative activity; the "surprising result" is the best possible outcome. This operations concept establishes a framework that allows scientists to make full use of the DSMS\´s science capabilities by providing the amount and type of collaboration from DSMS science personnel appropriate to each observation program
