Scientific paper
The focus is on observational studies of the composition, structure, and variability of planetary, satellite, and cometary atmospheres. The techniques used include spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, and photometric imaging in the spectral region from 3000 A to 5 microns. In addition to carrying out basic research into the origin, evolution, and current state of the solar system, these studies provide ground-truth support for observations of the solar system by NASA's missions, including the Voyager and Galileo Spacecraft, the Hubble Space Telescope, and the proposed Comet Rendezvous Asteroid Flyby (CRAF)-Cassini Mission.
