SwRI's Alice line of ultraviolet spectrographs (UVS) is founded on a lightweight, low power, and highly capable and versatile instrument design. With generally small changes in detector photocathode, detector pixel size, slit size and shape, optical coatings, pinhole aperture implementations, and other minor tweaks we've found a wide variety of applications for the Alice design, to date, at comets (Rosetta/Alice), Pluto (New Horizons/Alice), Luna (LRO/LAMP), and Jupiter (Juno/UVS). The SwRI UVS heritage includes very broad experience and strong performance to date on the Rosetta (Phase E; successful Mars flyby), New Horizons (Phase E; successful Jupiter flyby), LRO (Phase D; mated to the spacecraft), and Juno (Phase C) missions. Alice's high capability, low resource requirements, and our experience with Juno-based radiation environment and NH-based outer solar system environment requirements make this UVS a good choice for the Outer Planet Flagship mission concepts.
