Abstract

After a brief introductory historical perspective, this chapter reviews the role played by international collaboration in the implementation of the four pillars. It addresses the particularly important perspective of enabling the ambitious set of representative missions identified in Pillar 2, many of which are out of reach by a single space agency or accessible to only a small subgroup of them: international cooperation appears as one of the most promising avenues to accomplish these missions and to provide a valuable role to each space-faring nation in planetary exploration. It then reviews some of the mechanisms for international collaboration and describes some of the most successful ones. Finally, it describes the roles that international cooperation and public–private collaborations are expected to play at the 2061 horizon.
