    STORY | ASK MAGAZINE | 11 TitleMOON MISSION BY ON A SHOESTRING BY HaleY Stephenson and Matthew Kohut Intro Image courtesy Northrop Grumman The LCROSS spacecraft employed a novel use of an ESPA ring. When NASA announced that the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) would upgrade from a Delta II to a larger Atlas V launch vehicle, a window of opportunity opened for an additional mission to the moon. The Atlas V offered more capacity than LRO needed, creating space for a secondary payload. 12 | ASK MAGAZINE LCROSS Was NOT abOut PusHing THE tecHnicaL enVELOPE.

ASK MAGAZINE | 13 Close-up image of crater Cabeus A near the moon’s south pole showing crater elevation. Yellow represents lower elevations. e Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD) posed a challenge to interested secondary-payload teams: the chosen y r o mission could not interfere with LRO; it could not exceed a mass t a r o b of 1,000 kg; it could not cost more than $79 million; and it had a L n to be ready to y on LRO’s schedule.

    LCROSS: A HIGH-RETURN, SMALL SATELLITE MISSION Daniel Andrews, LCROSS PM NASA-Ames Research Center, MS 240-3, Moffett Field, CA 94035, USA, Email: [email protected] 1. THE LCROSS MISSION PROPOSAL Early in 2006, the NASA Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD) held a competition for NASA Centers to propose innovative ideas for a secondary payload mission to launch with the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) to the Moon. The successful proposal could cost no more than $80 million dollars (less was preferred), would have to be ready to launch with the LRO in 31 months, could weigh no more than 1000 kg (fuelled), and would be designated a risk-tolerant “Class D” mission. In effect, NASA was offering a fixed-price contract to the winning NASA team to stay within a cost and schedule cap by accepting an unusually elevated risk position. To address this Announcement of Opportunity to develop a cost-and-schedule-capped secondary payload mission to fly with LRO, NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) in Moffett Field, CA, USA embarked on a brainstorming effort termed “Blue Ice” in which a small team was asked to explore a number of mission scenarios that might have a good chance for success and still fit within the stated programmatic constraints. From this work, ARC developed and submitted six of the nineteen mission proposals received by ESMD from throughout the Agency, one of which was LCROSS - a collaborative effort between ARC and its industrial partner, Northrop-Grumman (NG) in Redondo Beach, CA, USA. In the LCROSS proposal, ARC would manage the mission, perform systems engineering and mission design (teaming with NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)), conduct mission and science operations, and design/develop the payload instrument suite while NG would design and build the innovative spacecraft bus.

  • Commercial Space: Federal Regulation, Oversight, and Utilization
    Commercial Space: Federal Regulation, Oversight, and Utilization Updated November 29, 2018 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45416 SUMMARY R45416 Commercial Space: Federal Regulation, November 29, 2018 Oversight, and Utilization Daniel Morgan U.S. companies have always been involved in spaceflight as contractors to government agencies. Specialist in Science and Increasingly, though, space is becoming commercial. A majority of U.S. satellites are now Technology Policy commercially owned, providing commercial services, and launched by commercial launch providers. Congressional and public interest in space is also becoming more focused on commercial activities, such as companies developing reusable rockets or collecting business data with fleets of small Earth-imaging satellites. This report addresses two distinct but closely related topics: how the federal government regulates, oversees, and promotes the commercial space sector; and how the federal government itself uses (or might in the future use) commercial space capabilities. Multiple federal agencies regulate the commercial space industry, based on statutory authorities that were enacted separately and have evolved over time. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) licenses commercial launch and reentry vehicles (i.e., rockets and spaceplanes) as well as commercial spaceports. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) licenses commercial Earth remote sensing satellites. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) licenses commercial satellite communications. The Departments of Commerce and State license exports of space technology. In response to industry concerns about the complexity of this regulatory framework, the Administration and Congress have made several reform proposals, including Space Policy Directive–2, Streamlining Regulations on Commercial Use of Space; the American Space Commerce Free Enterprise Act (H.R.
