DAVINCI (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging) was selected as one of two new Discovery missions in summer of 2021 with the primary goals to study how the Venus atmosphere formed and changed over time. DAVINCI does this by making in situ measurements of the atmosphere, taking images below the cloud layer during the descent phase, and imaging the surface and clouds during two flyby science opportunities. The Descent Sphere is neither designed nor required to land on the surface so all critical science data must be taken and transmitted to a relay spacecraft prior to impact. This architecture drives the mission to a carefully-crafted concept of operations; deployments, instrument operations, and communications are choreographed to ensure the right data is gathered at the right altitude given the uncertainties in the trajectory and timeline. A complex flow of analyses and tests throughout development will validate the system's ability to execute the mission goals. In the end DAVINCI will be ready for its one hour of descent time to meet its driving science goals.
