ODINUS (Origins, Dynamics, and Interiors of the Neptunian and Uranian Systems) is a space mission concept proposed to the European Space Agency's Cosmic Vision programme, consisting on two twin spacecraft. The ODINUS mission concept proposes to expand the Uranus orbiter and probe mission to twin orbiters— dubbed Freyr and Freyja, the twin gods of the Norse pantheon.
