AVIATR
AVIATR (Aerial Vehicle for In situ and Airborne Titan Reconnaissance) is a proposed airplane mission concept to Titan, a moon of Saturn. The concept was developed in 2011 by a team of scientists led by Jason W. Barnes at the University of Idaho. Compared to Earth, Titan has about one-seventh the gravity but four times the atmospheric density.〔(Proposed AVIATR Project Captures the Scientific Imagination. ) University of Idaho. 2011.〕 These conditions make it easier to fly there.〔 ==Overview== The design calls for a airplane powered by an advanced Stirling radioisotope generator〔 that would allow it to fly uninterrupted for about one year. However, the National Research Council's "Decadal Survey" did not prioritize the moon Titan for exploration, and the development of the advanced Stirling radioisotope generator was suspended indefinitely.〔〔(The ASRG Cancellation in Context ) Future Planetary Exploration〕
