Small spacecraft have become an important element of the space program. They are the instruments which allow us to continue the expansion of humankind's understanding of earth and space within the confines of a limited budget. To employ small spacecraft with greatest effect, policies and plans must inspire continuing innovation in spacecraft design while maintaining realistic expectations of what can potentially be achieved. The Cosmos on a Shoestring provides a comprehensive review of small spacecraft and how they can best be used to continue this nation's legacy of success in space exploration.
