The Planetary Science Decadal Survey [1] has identified Uranus as the highest priority destination for a flagship mission in the decade 2022-2032. Significant effort was expended across multiple teams in developing the concept study. The proposed poster will focus on the entry and descent aspects of an atmospheric probe, considered as part of the mission concept, and associated trades for viable trajectory options.
