We present a concept for kinetic impactor demonstration mission, which intends to change the spin rate of previously-visited asteroid, in this case 25143 Itokawa. The mission would determine efficiency momentum transfer during an impact, and help mature technology required both are important precursors future space deflect asteroid by collisional means emergency situation. Most concepts date based on changing asteroid's heliocentric orbit require reconnaissance spacecraft measure very small...
The goal of this paper is to describe the development a hardware-in-the-loop simulation and verification environment for Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based on-board computing systems. underlying Model-based Development Verification Environment (MDVE). MDVE an infrastructure model-based engineering developed by EADS Astrium. A on was at Universität Stuttgart. Recently, demand applying new high density FPGA technologies innovative spacecraft systems rising. small satellite “Flying...
Abstract Deflection missions to near-Earth asteroids will encounter non-negligible uncertainties in the physical and orbital parameters of target object. In order reliably assess future impact threat mitigation operations such have be quantified incorporated into mission design. The implementation deflection demonstration offers great opportunity test our current understanding relevant their consequences, e.g., regarding kinetic impacts on asteroid surfaces. this contribution, we discuss...
Comets are generally considered among the most pristine objects in our Solar System. There have thus been significant efforts to understand these bodies. During past decades, we seen progress theoretical understanding of planetesimal/cometesimals (the precursors comets) formation. Recent space missions—such as ESA’s Rosetta mission comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko—have provided observations claimed by proponents different formation theories validate their scenarios. Yet, no single paradigm...
The number of the small satellite projects is recently dramatically increasing and there are great demands for effective project management methods them. goal this paper to propose projects, which obtained through real-life experience Flying Laptop project. implemented in maximize advantages rapid cost-effective approaches. based on breakdown structures, derived from a combination several existing standards empirical methods. These use product tree as backbone architecture. activities, such...
The β-factor expresses the gain in a momentum transfer exerted by an impacting spacecraft on Near-Earth Object (NEO) due to ejecta escape. Accurate knowledge of allows insight physical properties NEO and bears potential for cost reduction future mitigation missions lowering required impact momentum. First, definition known scalar enhancement is generalized matrix which proven overcome shortcomings inherent variant. Moreover, clear distinction between linear angular matrices introduced. new...
Abstract Since 2001 EADS Astrium GmbH has implemented a model-based system simulation infrastructure for support of spacecraft development, onboard software verification and design validation. Corresponding thereto an engineering process been established, allowing development full validation spacecrafts without necessity models on level. This is called “model-based environment” (MDVE). Major benefit applying MDVE the early possibility simulated satellite mission operations, using real in...
This paper presents two major contributions: (1) a novel approach to the robust performance analysis by means of H <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> -norm metric and (2) application this method spacecraft lander in an uncertain environment around Small Solar System Body (SSSB). The objective first outcome is quantify effect uncertainties on disturbance rejection noise attenuation given control system formulated as Linear...
