These spacecraft were very expensive and primarily designed to study planets during gravitational assist maneuvers. They were not designed to explore space past Pluto and their study of this environment is at best a secondary mission. These spacecraft rely on radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) to provide power, an expensive yet necessary approach to generating sufficient power. With Cubesats graduating to interplanetary capabilities, such as the Mars-bound MarCO spacecraft[1], matching the modest payload requirements to study the outer Solar System (OSS) with the capabilities of low-power nano-satellites may enable much more affordable access to deep space. This paper explores a design concept for a low-cost, small spacecraft, designed to study the OSS and satisfy mission requirements with solar power. The general spacecraft design incorporates a parabolic reflector that acts as both a solar concentrator and a high gain antenna. This paper explores a working design concept for a small spacecraft to operate up to 100 astronomical units (AU) from the sun. Deployable reflector designs, thermal and radiation environments, communications and power requirements, solar system escape trajectory options, and scientific payload requirements are detailed, and a working system is proposed that can fulfill mission requirements with expected near-future innovations in a few key technologies. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I'd like to thank several people for helping me with this project. First of all, I'd like to send out a huge thank you to Professor Jordi Puig-Suari and Robert Staehle from JPL for helping me with all the intricacies of this project. They were immensely helpful in every aspect of this paper and always provided excellent advice and suggestions for the design. I would also like to thank my family and friends for providing the emotional support for getting through this stressful project. Without them, I would have had the motivation to put in the momentous amount of hours into this program. I also would like to thank my peers in this program for providing me with engineering help on this project, even going to lengths of designing parts of this spacecraft through group class projects. v
