The fidelity and thought that went into each decision was clearly communicated and forms a solid foundation upon which the team can build.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The PDR \u2013 a requirement for all NASA missions \u2013 covers topics such as spacecraft design, mission requirements, science plans, schedule, cost, and risk. Held at APL, which manages the mission and will build and operate the Dragonfly lander, the PDR included more than 60 presentations to a panel of external experts tasked with evaluating and assessing mission progress for NASA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m excited to see all of the Dragonfly mission\u2019s design components coming together,\u201d said Lori Glaze, director of the Planetary Science Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington. \u201cThis mission team\u2019s hard work has resulted in the technical design for a spacecraft that can conduct compelling science to increase our understanding of Titan.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASA will consider the board\u2019s findings in a confirmation review later this year, examining Dragonfly\u2019s cost, schedule, and the recommended baseline plan forward. <\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"985\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?w=985\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"Space Exploration Sector engineers \" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg 985w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?resize=400,267 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflytest_nasa.jpg?resize=900,600 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 985px) 100vw, 985px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Space Exploration Sector engineers (from left) John Samsock, Anthony Drewicz and Stephanie Lepchenske work with a test platform in the Dragonfly Flight Lab.

We\u2019re incredibly excited to have completed this step, and are ready to continue our work on the next phase of Dragonfly development \u2014 including testing in the large Titan-environment chamber here at APL over the next year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dragonfly centers on a game-changing approach to planetary exploration, employing a rotorcraft-lander to travel between and sample diverse sites on this mysterious world. Dragonfly will characterize the habitability of Titan\u2019s environment, investigate the progression of prebiotic chemistry in an environment where carbon-rich material and liquid water may have mixed for an extended period, and even search for chemical indications of whether water-based or hydrocarbon-based life once existed on Titan.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-none \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"985\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?w=985\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"Dragonfly team members\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg 985w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?resize=400,267 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/dragonflyteam_2023.jpg?resize=900,600 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 985px) 100vw, 985px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Dragonfly team members pause during the mission preliminary design review, held at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Maryland, from Feb. 27-March 3.
