S95-01400 (February 1995) --- (Artist's concept of possible exploration programs.) After first visiting the Moon, this solar electric propulsion vehicle approaches the near-dormant nucleus of Comet Wilson-Harrington. The Diana mission, proposed by NASA Lewis Research Center (LRC), the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), TRW, the University of California at Los Angeles, and other participants, will provide the first high-resolution compositional, gravitational, and visual mapping of the entire lunar surface. The spacecraft will then collect the same data during the first rendezvous with the heart of a comet. Artwork done for NASA by Pat Rawlings, of SAIC.
