An overview of possibilities being explored by NASA for effective planetary exploration at low cost is presented. The Solar System Exploration Committee (SSEC) has been examining this issue, with particular attention given to the areas of observing scientific objectives using derivative designs and hardware, and limiting modifications. The Venus Radar Mapper has been endorsed by the SSEC in terms of using existing space hardware, and has proven to be cost effective. In addition, hardware developed for Galileo missions must be used. Finally, the development of a spacecraft design which can be cost-effectively reconfigured from mission to mission is underway with the Mariner Mark II Concept. It is anticipated that low cost planetary exploration methods will be the focus of study at the SSEC.
