Paving the Way for Future Space Missions in the Context of High Tidal Dissipation in the Saturnian System

Abstract:
The recent discovery of strong tidal dissipation in Saturn’s interior has radically changed our view of the Saturnian system. While some questions are naturally answered by the new paradigm, others are emerging and require further measurement. This article presents the next key questions to be addressed by future space missions and analysis. Suggestions for space measurements to discriminate between different scenarios concerning the formation, evolution and internal state of the Saturnian system are given.
