planetaryformation&theemergenceoflife?

– HowdoestheSolarSystemwork?

– WhatarethephysicalfundamentallawsoftheUniverse?

– HowdidtheUniverseoriginateandwhatisitmadeof?

• Four different mission types: Large (“L”), Medium (“M”), Small (“S”), Opportunity (“O”)


Missions• Large- highinnovationcontent

– Europeanflagships,withnon-enablingcontributionsfrominternationalpartners

– 1B€class,1every7-8years• Medium- useofcurrentcutting-edgetechnology

– Canhavesubstantialinternationalcontributions,orcanbeacontributiontoamissionfromanotheragency

– 500M€class,1every3-4years• Small– Newelement,still“experimental”

– FastandwithESACaC =50M€– IncreaseflightopportunitiesforEuropeanscientists

• Opportunity– contributiontootheragencies
