Scientific paper

At its meeting March 29-31, 2000, the Space Studies Board's Committee on Planetary and Lunar Exploration (COMPLEX) began work on an assessment of options for the orderly disposal for the Galileo spacecraft at the end of its mission. This assessment was made at the specific verbal and, subsequent, written request of John D. Rummel, NASA's Planetary Protection Officer. COMPLEX was asked to provide 'findings, conclusions, and recommendations' about the various end-of-mission options currently being considered by the Galileo Project. In addition, the committee was asked to comment of four subsidiary issues relating to the possibility of impacting Io and Europa and the biological contamination of Jupiter and Io.
