The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission is unique from a mission design perspective in that three spacecraft and their associated operations form one distributed science instrument, unlike more conventional missions where an instrument(s) is a component of an individual spacecraft. The interferometer measurements between spacecraft that form the basis for the science measurements, i.e. strain, relies on all three of the spacecraft interacting as designed. The performance of one spacecraft in the LISA constellation is directly coupled to the performance of the two remaining spacecraft in order for the instrument to collect meaningful science data. This dependency on all three spacecraft to function as the instrument is the primary driver for unique design requirements that span all spacecraft subsystems and the overall mission design. A detailed discussion will be presented that describes the spacecraft and current mission architecture needed to meet the LISA science requirements.
