  • Space Exploration Review 3 4.4 Resources Required
    Foreword This report provides advice to Ministers on the options open to the UK in the field of space exploration. It was agreed by the Minister for Science and Innovation and the Terms of Reference were approved by the Secretary of State for Innovation, Universities and Skills in May 2008. The report builds on the advice offered to BNSC by the UK Space Exploration Working Group in September 2007 and takes account of reports from other expert bodies and discussions with international partners and other experts. The work was carried out by a small team seconded in to BNSC. The economic analysis was carried out by London Economics who were selected by a competitive bid. The review was overseen by a Steering Committee taken from BNSC, STFC and DIUS1, and including an independent member. Review team Jeremy Curtis (STFC) – Review Leader Prof Louise Harra (Mullard Space Science Laboratory, UCL) Prof John Zarnecki (Open University) Prof Monica Grady (Open University) For London Economics Charlotte Duke – Economics Team Leader Rodney Buckland (independent consultant) Steering Committee Prof Keith Mason (Chairman UK Space Board, CEO STFC) – Chairman Dr David Williams (DG BNSC) Dr David Parker (Director Space Science and Exploration, BNSC) Mark Beatson (Head of Science and Innovation Analysis, DIUS, now BIS) Lord Alec Broers (independent member) 1 DIUS merged with BERR in June 2009 to create the Department of Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) 2 IN CONFIDENCE Table of contents 1 Executive Summary ..............................................................................................

  • Planetary Penetrators: Their Origins, History and Future
    Author's personal copy Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Advances in Space Research 48 (2011) 403–431 www.elsevier.com/locate/asr Planetary penetrators: Their origins, history and future Ralph D. Lorenz ⇑ Johns Hopkins University, Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, MD 20723, USA Received 6 January 2011; received in revised form 19 March 2011; accepted 24 March 2011 Available online 30 March 2011 Abstract Penetrators, which emplace scientific instrumentation by high-speed impact into a planetary surface, have been advocated as an alter- native to soft-landers for some four decades. However, such vehicles have yet to fly successfully. This paper reviews in detail, the origins of penetrators in the military arena, and the various planetary penetrator mission concepts that have been proposed, built and flown. From the very limited data available, penetrator developments alone (without delivery to the planet) have required $30M: extensive analytical instrumentation may easily double this. Because the success of emplacement and operation depends inevitably on uncontrol- lable aspects of the target environment, unattractive failure probabilities for individual vehicles must be tolerated that are higher than the typical ‘3-sigma’ (99.5%) values typical for spacecraft. The two pathways to programmatic success, neither of which are likely in an aus- tere financial environment, are a lucky flight as a ‘piggyback’ mission or technology demonstration, or with a substantial and unprec- edented investment to launch a scientific (e.g. seismic) network mission with a large number of vehicles such that a number of terrain- induced failures can be tolerated.

This analysis is on behalf of BNSC partners for input to UK Space Board, BNSC Space Advisory Council, PPARC Science Committee (or its successor), BNSC Space Technology Advisory Board and other relevant advisory committees. The views expressed are those of the members of the Group and not necessarily of their institutions.

  • Roadmap for Solar System Science November 6, 2012
    Roadmap for Solar System Research November 2012 Prepared by the Solar System Advisory Panel on behalf of the UK Community of Solar System Scientists for the STFC Programmatic Review Panel membership: Monica Grady (Chair; Open University); Chris Arridge (MSSL), Simon Calcutt (Oxford); Chris Davis (RAL), Hilary Downes (Birkbeck); Bob Forsyth (Imperial); Alan Hood (St Andrews); Rekha Jain (Sheffield) and Stephen Lowry (Kent) Roadmap for Solar System Science November 6, 2012 Executive Summary 1. The Solar System Advisory Panel (SSAP) invited its community to a Town Meeting in London on 10th September 2012, at which the content and structure of the SSAP Roadmap (this document) was discussed. The SSAP drafted the Roadmap, which was circulated to the community in mid-October, then revised by the SSAP prior to submission to the PPAN review board in early November 2012. 2. The SSAP acknowledges, with gratitude, its predecessor body, the Near Universe Advisory Panel, whose extremely thorough report of November 2009 was used as a guide and a template for this Roadmap. 3. Solar System science is not an island isolated from other research communities, particularly the Astronomy and Particle Astrophysics communities, and there is potential for overlap in the research aims of the communities. Where possible, this has been indicated in the text. 4. The STFC is not the sole Research Council that has interests in Solar System research. Both the UK Space Agency and the Natural Environmental Research Council are involved in different aspects of the research. The SSAP hope that this Roadmap will help these bodies as they also define their research priorities.
