The status of the NASA Solar Electric Propulsion System (SEPS) program is reviewed. The plans for SEPS definition and development include the initiation of the SEPS definition phase, the procurement for full-scale development in 1980, delivery of the SEPS for integration and tests with the comet rendezvous spacecraft in 1984, and a launch in 1985 that involves a flyby of Halley's comet in 1985 and a subsequent rendezvous with the comet Tempel 2 in 1988. In preparation for this, the acquisition process for SEPS has been initiated based on mission requirements rather than system requirements.
