Uranus and Neptune

Abstract

A scientific framework within which to plan the Voyager encounters with Uranus and Neptune was sought. Specific objectives were: (1) to assess the current state of knowledge of Uranus and Neptune, their magnetospheres, and their respective systems of satellites and rings (if any), (2) to identify important scientific issues that can be addressed effectively by Voyager, and (3) to provide an opportunity for Voyager investigators to interact with other scientists knowledgeable in the field of physical studies of the Uranian and Neptunian systems.
