Flyby missions to outer solar system objects require a very high confidence of since there are no second chances. The quantity, quality, and diversity of science measurements to be made in a matter of hours or days must justify the mission cost. Accordingly, the mission architecture must include a high degree of redundancy, large design margins, and an ability to correct or operate through anomalies while at the same time being deterministic enough for confidence in system verification and validation. In this paper we present a system architecture as part of a proposed mission to Triton, called “Trident”.
