Overall Findings SRC 2012 didn’t provide an overall rank-order They felt we have a minimum set of missions – nothing can be turned off SRC rated Missions in 5 Metrics: –Discovery Space, Long Term Impact, Publications/$, Synergy, Criticality SRC also considered missions among each class –Great Observatories: HST & Chandra –Discovery/Probe Class: Kepler, Fermi, Spitzer –Explorer: Swift –Foreign: Planck, Suzaku, XMM-Newton Overall Recommendations: Reduce cost of mission operations Increase GO funding 5/11/123Astro 2012 SR - Presentation to AAAC
