WE PROPOSE THE FIRST DETAILED MINERALOGICAL STUDY OF THE SMALL IRREGULAR SATELLITES AND TROJAN ASTEROIDS OF THE GIANT PLANETS. BY OBTAINING VISIBLE AND NEAR-INFRARED SPECTRA (0.4-2.5 MICRONS) USING GROUND BASED TELESCOPES WE SEEK TO TEST THE HYPOTHESIS THAT EACH OF THESE GROUPS WAS DERIVED FROM THE SAME ORIGINAL SOURCE. SUCH OBJECTS SERVE AS MARKERS OF PLANETARY MIGRATION DURING THE FIRST BILLION YEARS OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. HENCE TRACING THEIR ORIGINS THROUGH MEASUREMENTS OF SURFACE COMPOSITIONS DIRECTLY SUPPORTS NASA GOALS AS OUTLINED BY THE CURRENT DECADAL SURVEY FOR PLANETARY SCIENCE SPECIFICALLY RESEARCH TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING THE "DYNAMICAL EVOLUTION OF PLANETS BY THEIR EFFECTS ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIMITIVE BODIES." OUR RESULTS WOULD DIRECTLY CONSTRAIN DYNAMICAL MODELS OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM'S HISTORY BY PROVIDING PRESENT DAY END POINTS ON THE REORGANIZATION OF PRIMITIVE BODIES AS A RESULT OF ANY PLANET MIGRATION. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH WOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY BENJAMIN SHARKEY AS PART OF A PH.D. DISSERTATION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA
