The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission was selected as the second in the low-cost Mars Scout mission series. MAVEN will determine the role that loss of volatiles to space has played through time from a highly inclined elliptical orbit. The launch period opens November 18. 2013 with arrival September 16, 2014. After achieving a 35-hour capture orbit, maneuvers will reduce the period to 4.5-hours with periapsis near 150 kilometers and maintain the periapsis within a specified density corridor. MAVEN will also execute "Deep Dip" campaigns, with periapsis at an altitude near 125 kilometers. This paper presents the unique mission design challenges of the MAVEN mission.
