In this paper, the authors propose a new process for the development and operation of inmanned vehicles for the exploration of space. We call the vehicle Sciencecraft to distinguish it from the more traditional vehicle Spacecraft. A Sciencecraft is an integrated unit that combines science instruments, electronics, telecommunications, power, and propulsion elements into a single system.
