Outer-planet probe/flyby missionsResults are presented for preliminary studies of low-cost outer-planet probe/flyby missions. The scientific rationale for such missions is discussed, along with possible mission modes, spacecraft concepts, launch-vehicle options, and a recommended set of outer-planet missions. Descriptions are given for a 1990 Titan probe/flyby mission and a 1991 Saturn probe/flyby mission. Projected costs are analyzed for these two missions as well as for a 1992 Neptune probe/flyby mission, a 1994 Uranus probe/flyby mission, and a 2003 Pluto flyby mission.
