BALL CONFIGURABLE PLATFORM (BCP)-100

When looking for a small spacecraft ® GO BEYOND WITH BALL. designed for payload flexibility at an affordable price, we have flight- proven spacecraft that is the reliable choice. The BCP-100, is a perfect small satellite, offering rapid response to meet mission requirements. OVERVIEW CAPABILITIES

Developed on a configurable, proven spacecraft design, Parameter Capability the BCP-100 is a capable and affordable small satellite • Orbit Altitude 400 to 850 km solution. BCP-100 missions are typically optimized for scientific, technology development and risk reduction • Orbit Inclination 0° to 98.8° payloads. The BCP-100 uses a common spacecraft bus • Launch Mass ≤180 kg for ESPA with standard payload interfaces that reduce mission compatibility (increased cost, streamline payload accommodation, and minimize mass available for other delivery time. Our BCP-100 nominally accommodates up launches) to four independent payloads, is designed to operate over • Space Vehicle Volume ≤60.9 x 71.1 x 96.5 cm a wide range of low earth orbits, and is compatible with a for ESPA compatibility variety of launch vehicles. The BCP-100 offers ride-share (increase volume for potential providing additional cost-savings in getting to other launches) orbit. Two BCP-100 spacecraft have flown with a third scheduled for launch in 2017 • Launch Vehicle Delta IV ESPA, Atlas V Compatibility ESPA, Minotaur I, Minotaur IV, Pegasus, Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy PAYLOAD ACCOMMODATION • Space Vehicle Lifetime Solar arrays and battery provide for long-life Parameter Capability (total for all payloads) capability • Payload Mass 70 kg • Reliability Ps = 0.93 @ 1 year; 0.81 @ 3 years; 0.71 @ 5 years • Payload Orbit 200 W (best case orbit), Average Power (OAP) 100 W (worst case) • Stabilization Method 3-axis • Payload Volume 0.14 m3 for ESPA compatibility • Pointing Modes Nadir, ground target (increase volume for other tracking, inertial point, launches) payload sun point, safe • Payload Field Unobstructed hemispherical • Attitude Knowledge 0.03° 3σ of Regard field of view • Attitude Control 0.03° to 0.10° 3σ • Number of Payloads Up to four depending on mode; enhanced options available • Payload Mission Up to 2 Mbps from each payload Data Handling • Bus Voltage 28 V ±6 V dc • Payload Digital RS-422 provides real-time and • Communication L-Band uplink, S-Band Command/Data high rate (synchronous and Frequency downlink (encrypted Interface UART – selectable) data, SGLS), NASA STDN, and command; 8 input and 8 output commercial options bi-level discretes per payload • Command/Telemetry 2 Kbps uplink/32 Kbps • Payload Analog 8 analog channels per payload Rate downlink Data Interface for health and status • Mission Data Rate 2 Mbps downlink; 5 Mbps • Payload Heat Up to 100 W through downlink option Rejection spacecraft bus • On-Board Data 2 Gbytes, readily • Interface Temperature -20 °C to +50 °C Storage expandable with flash memory card in spare slot • Propulsion (Option) Green Propellant, Hydrazine options
