A consistent source of payload performance data for missions to the outer planets is provided. The payload data for both flybys and orbiters is presented graphically as a function of flight time for various launch years, launch vehicles, and orbit sizes. All the relevant parameters have been combined to produce useful data on a single graph to make advanced mission planning much easier. The limitation of this mode of presentation is that only a reasonable number of payload vs. flight time curves can be drawn. Thus it is necessary to select parameters carefully to reflect frequently used values. (Author)
