Future NASA missions reflect input from the scientific community and address strategic plans for Solar system exploration in the coming decades. Future missions are in development and will launch beginning in the spring of 2009, with launch dates through 2035. New Frontiers Mission Class missions were competed and one was chosen. Flagship Mission class missions were not competed-they were directly chosen by NASA. These missions are still in the mission concept phase. They are predefined and are currently undergoing extensive studies that will determine feasibility, configuration and potential science investigations. Further, many of these missions would have possible collaboration with international partners such as the European Space Agency (ESA) and others.
