  • Navigation Challenges During Exomars Trace Gas Orbiter Aerobraking Campaign
    NON-PEER REVIEW Please select category below: Normal Paper Student Paper Young Engineer Paper Navigation Challenges during ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter Aerobraking Campaign Gabriele Bellei 1, Francesco Castellini 2, Frank Budnik 3 and Robert Guilanyà Jané 4 1 DEIMOS Space located at ESA/ESOC, Robert-Bosch-Str. 5, Darmstadt, 64293, Germany 2 Telespazio VEGA located at ESA/ESOC, Robert-Bosch-Str. 5, Darmstadt, 64293, Germany 3 ESA/ESOC, Robert-Bosch-Str. 5, Darmstadt, 64293, Germany 4 GMV INSYEN located at ESA/ESOC, Robert-Bosch-Str. 5, Darmstadt, 64293, Germany Abstract The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter satellite spent one year in aerobraking operations at Mars, lowering its orbit period from one sol to about two hours. This delicate phase challenged the operations team and in particular the navigation system due to the highly unpredictable Mars atmosphere, which imposed almost continuous monitoring, navigation and re-planning activities. An aerobraking navigation concept was, for the first time at ESA, designed, implemented and validated on-ground and in-flight, based on radiometric tracking data and complemented by information extracted from spacecraft telemetry. The aerobraking operations were successfully completed, on time and without major difficulties, thanks to the simplicity and robustness of the selected approach. This paper describes the navigation concept, presents a recollection of the main in-flight results and gives a retrospective of the main lessons learnt during this activity. Keywords: ExoMars, Trace Gas Orbiter, aerobraking, navigation, orbit determination, Mars atmosphere, accelerometer Introduction The ExoMars program is a cooperation between the European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos for the robotic exploration of the red planet.

    Cleaning the dishes 29 November 2019 activities. "This was the first time such an operation was conducted on an ESA deep space antenna, and despite its complexity, all involved teams managed to conduct the activity smoothly returning the antenna to service within just a week." Scheduled maintenance of high-tech equipment also took place while the antenna power was off, as well as a series of frequency and timing enhancements, an upgrade of data routers and the installation of a new safety rail. Credit: ESA / Suzy Jackson On 6 November, during the antenna maintenance, the New Norcia site was visited by Hon. Kim Beazley AC, formerly Deputy Prime Minister and current Governor of Western Australia. Large antennas are our only current way of communicating through space across vast What are we looking at? distances, and every now and then they need to be spruced up to ensure we can keep in touch with The New Norcia station in Western Australia is one our deep-space exploration spacecraft. of three deep-space dishes in ESA's ESTRACK network.

  • The Evolution of Deep Space Navigation: 2004-2006*
    AAS 17-325 THE EVOLUTION OF DEEP SPACE NAVIGATION: 2004-2006* Lincoln J. Wood† The exploration of the planets of the solar system using robotic vehicles has been underway since the early 1960s. During this time the navigational capabili- ties employed have increased greatly in accuracy, as required by the scientific objectives of the missions and as enabled by improvements in technology. This paper is the fourth in a chronological sequence dealing with the evolution of deep space navigation. The time interval covered extends from roughly 2004 to 2006. The paper focuses on the observational techniques that have been used to obtain navigational information, propellant-efficient means for modifying spacecraft trajectories, and the computational methods that have been employed, tracing their evolution through eleven planetary missions. INTRODUCTION Three previous papers1,2,3 have described the evolution of deep space navigation over the time interval 1962 to 2004. The missions covered in the first of these ranged from the early Mariner missions to the inner planets to the Voyager mission to the outer planets. The second paper extended the previous paper by one decade. It covered the entirety of the Magellan, Mars Observer, Mars Pathfinder, Mars Climate Orbiter, and Mars Polar Lander missions, as well as the portions of the Pioneer Venus Orbiter, Galileo, Ulysses, Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous, Mars Global Surveyor, Cassini, and Deep Space 1 missions that took place between 1989 and 1999. The third paper covered the portions of the Galileo, Near Earth Asteroid Rendez- vous, Mars Global Surveyor, Cassini, Deep Space 1, Stardust, 2001 Mars Odyssey, and Mars Exploration Rover missions that took place between 1999 and 2004.
