Summary:

The Mariner Jupiter/Saturn 1977 project is part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) program with objectives of advancing knowledge of these planets and relating their properties to those of Earth.

Plans were being considered to extend the project to include interplanetary/interstellar research which would add about $61 million to costs, exclusive of tracking and data acquisition costs.
