CONTRACT RELEASE C16-032

NASA Awards Contract for Refueling Mission Spacecraft

NASA has awarded the Restore-L Spacecraft Bus and Support Services contract to Space Systems/Loral of Palo Alto, California. Restore-L is a robotic spacecraft equipped with the tools, technologies and techniques needed to service satellites currently in orbit.

The contract has a firm-fixed-price and includes a three-year core period and a two-year indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity portion. The total maximum value of the contract is $127 million.

Space Systems/Loral will provide spacecraft bus, critical hardware and services for the development, deployment and operations of the Restore-L mission. They also will provide related services to accomplish mission integration, test, launch and operations.
The Restore-L Project is managed within NASA's Satellite Servicing Projects Division at the agency's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, for NASA's Space Technology Mission Directorate.

The Satellite Servicing Projects Division at Goddard was established in 2009 to continue NASA's 40-year legacy of satellite servicing and repair. Restore-L is a free-flying mission projected to launch in 2020 to perform in-orbit satellite servicing on an operational government asset in low-Earth orbit.

К дискуссии про "сервисный модуль":

НАСА решило найти выход из этой ситуации. На этой неделе космическое агентство объявило, что резервирует $ 127 млн для финансирования программы по осуществлению ремонта и заправки орбитальных спутников.

Проект Restore-L разрабатывается компанией Space Systems Loral, офис которой базируется в Пало-Альто, штат Калифорния. Спутниковый дрон будет обладать автономной навигацией, ловкими руками-манипуляторами, роботизированным инструментарием для устранения различного рода поломок и баком ракетного топлива, которым можно заправлять космические аппараты, исчерпавшие запас горючего. По оценкам компании, Restore-L сможет приступить к выполнению обязанностей в 2020. Его первой миссией скорее всего будет дозаправка Landsat-7, который обеспечивает спутниковые снимки для Геологической службы США.

NASA has a builder to construct a five-ton spacecraft to catch up with the aging Landsat 7 Earth observation satellite and refuel it in 2020, employing robotic tools mastered in years of rehearsals on the International Space Station.
The government-managed servicing mission is named Restore-L, and NASA officials hope it will jump-start commercial concepts to refuel and repair satellites.
NASA announced Dec. 5 that Space Systems/Loral, a U.S.-based satellite manufacturer owned by Canada's MDA Corp., will build the Restore-L mission's satellite bus. The contract is worth up to $127 million, NASA said, but that could represent just part of MDA's contribution to the mission.
The robot arms in development to fly on Restore-L is similar to arms flown on NASA's Mars rovers — a "combination of in-house NASA expertise and technology, and the best from industry," said Benjamin Reed, deputy project manager at NASA's Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office at Goddard.
Restore-L's servicing arms will also be based on a ground test unit developed in partnership between NASA, MDA and Motiv Space Systems.
Space System/Loral's spacecraft design will provide power, communications and propulsion for the Restore-L mission.
"We are pleased to work with NASA to provide a high-performance spacecraft platform that will help make next generation satellite servicing a reality," said John Celli, president of SSL. "This mission will be a breakthrough in the way we think about satellites on orbit, which previously could not be touched after launch. By using the SSL 1300 production platform as the structure and power system for the spacecraft, the mission will benefit from the high performance, reliability, and value that has been proven on more than a hundred missions."
The Restore-L demonstration will the first of its kind, extending techniques first tried out on space shuttle flights to salvage stranded satellites and refurbish the Hubble Space Telescope.
No astronauts will be on Restore-L, but engineers will closely track the mission as it marches through its tasks step-by-step, first to autonomously catch Landsat 7 in orbit more than 400 miles (700 kilometers) above Earth, then lock on to the spacecraft, cut into its propellant tank, and refuel the satellite, and do almost all of it by itself.
Launched aboard a Delta 2 rocket in 1999, Landsat 7 was not designed to link up with another object in orbit, and engineers never intended for the satellite to be refueled after launch.
"Restore-L effectively breaks the paradigm of one-and-done spacecraft" said Frank Cepollina, associate director of Goddard's Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office, and former leader of the shuttle servicing missions to Hubble.
"It introduces new ways to robotically manage, upgrade and prolong the lifespans of our costly orbiting national assets," Cepollina said in a NASA press release. "By doing so, Restore-L opens up expanded options for more resilient, efficient and cost-effective operations in space."

Robotics experts at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland have practiced satellite refueling techniques with mock-up tools outside the space station since 2011, when the Robotic Refueling Mission arrived at the complex aboard the shuttle Atlantis on the space shuttle program's final flight.
The refueling demo package hosted servicing tools, adapters and task boards requiring the space station's Dextre robot to cut into a sealed fuel cap simulating what a servicing freighter might encounter at a satellite that was not designed for refueling.
After using cutters to slice through thermal blankets and wires, the two-armed Dextre robot successfully unscrewed a filling cap and transferred ethanol, a simulated satellite propellant, in 2013.
The breakthrough demonstrated a satellite could break the seal on another spacecraft's fuel tank, a mundane task on Earth but one that requires practice in orbit.
"We have learned what tools work well," Reed said. "For example, (the tools for) cutting wire and removing two different-sized caps, those tools will be very little changed from our ISS tools to our Restore-L tools."
A second phase of experiments with the Robotic Refueling Mission in 2015 successfully tested a microscopic visual inspection camera, which was called into service to determine the cause of a mysterious black mark that appeared on the space station's Canadian-built robot arm.
The RRM also practiced techniques for transferring coolants between spacecraft, manipulated electrical connectors, and worked with decals that could aid operations guided by machine vision and recognition, NASA said.
Engineers wrapped up the Robotic Refueling Mission project earlier this year, and the package is now awaiting disposal aboard a supply ship after it departs the space station on a future mission.

The Goddard-based satellite servicing team is about to send a new experiment to the space station named Raven. Set for launch on SpaceX's next Dragon cargo mission in early 2017, the Raven module hosts visible, infrared and laser sensors and a high-speed processor to track the motion of incoming and departing vehicles in the vicinity of the space station.
In an interview earlier this year, Reed said Raven "will demonstrate that we can autonomously sense and track — in three different wavelengths simultaneously — range, bearing and pose — what is the pitch, roll and yaw angle of an on-orbit satellite."
The pose determination is a new challenge for targets not equipped with laser reflectors or tracking markers — what space engineers call "uncooperative objects" — to aid an approaching spacecraft's navigation system.
"It's to buy down technology risk prior to doing it for the first time on a real-world mission," Reed told Spaceflight Now. "We are going to be tracking visiting vehicles as they come and go from station delivering cargo and crew."
Restore-L passed a mission concept review in May, followed weeks later by a confirmation review when top NASA managers endorsed the project.
Reed said NASA will oversee the rendezvous sensors, dual robot arms and propellant transfer system to fly on Restore-L, leaning on Goddard's expertise from the robotic rehearsals on the space station, but industrial suppliers will have a role in the payload.
Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corp. is expected to provide a three-dimensional vision navigation sensor for Restore-L's autopilot rendezvous suite, and NASA is procuring visible and infrared cameras from outside sources.
NASA's robot arms slated for the Restore-L mission also have roots in the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency's satellite servicing program, which has seen stops and starts, with its latest focus centered on approaching and servicing spacecraft in geostationary orbit more than 22,000 miles (nearly 36,000 kilometers) above Earth.

Geostationary satellites are most often used for communications missions.
NASA considered a geostationary refueling mission, but elected to try the demonstration in low Earth orbit, settling on Landsat 7 as a target for Restore-L.
Space agency officials are in the final stages of working out a final agreement on the refueling mission with the U.S. Geological Survey, Landsat 7's owner.
The Landsat 7 satellite is well beyond its five-year design life, and will be in its third decade of service by the time Restore-L arrives. The USGS has a newer land imaging observatory, Landsat 8, that launched in 2013 to take over Landsat 7's mission, allowing the older craft to transition to a backup role.
With Landsat 7 no longer a top-priority asset, and with the satellite expected to run out of fuel in 2020 or 2021, the Earth-imaging craft became a natural target for Restore-L's first-time servicing demo.
Reed said Restore-L, built on Space System/Loral's 1300-series satellite bus, will weigh just shy of 5 metric tons (11,000 pounds) at launch. A rocket for the Restore-L mission has not been sel ected, but it is compatible with SpaceX's Falcon 9 booster and United Launch Alliance's basic Atlas 5 rocket configuration without strap-on boosters.
Restore-L will blast off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, go through a short period of in-orbit testing, then rendezvous with Landsat 7.
Mission managers have budgeted about three months for Restore-L to complete its tasks. The preliminary flight plan calls for the spacecraft to spend about a week at Landsat 7, slicing into thermal blankets, breaking the cap to the satellite's fuel tank, pumping propellant, and resealing the fuel reservoir.
The rest of the flight plan will include in-orbit tests before Restore-L is cleared to approach Landsat 7, a multi-day rendezvous profile, and decommissioning at the end of the mission.
NASA aims to transfer the know-how from the Restore-L mission to U.S. companies in hopes of fostering a commercial satellite servicing business. DARPA's geostationary servicing program, which is, so far, less defined than NASA's Restore-L mission, has a similar privatization objective.
One company is already planning a commercial satellite servicing mission.
Orbital ATK's first Mission Extension Vehicle, named MEV 1, is booked for a flight on an International Launch Services Proton rocket by the end of 2018, heading for an Intelsat communications satellite in geostationary orbit.
The MEV 1 servicer will not have the refueling capabilities of Restore-L. Instead, the vehicle will latch on to the Intelsat satellite's disused rocket engine and take over control of its positioning, extending the client spacecraft's lifetime as it runs out of maneuvering fuel.
Orbital ATK and Intelsat envision the extension vehicle could visit several satellites, keeping the telecom stations active and potentially pushing them around Earth to cover new regions.
NASA also hopes robotic satellite repairs on Earth orbit could lead into deep space. The robotic arms and automation to be used on Restore-L could also aid NASA's Asteroid Redirect Mission, in which an unpiloted craft will snag a boulder from an asteroid and return it to the vicinity of the moon for visits by astronauts.
The asteroid retrieval idea has attracted critics in Congress and in the science community, who say the project's benefits could be achieved in other ways. Backers say the mission would advance deep space solar-electric propulsion technologies required for human expeditions to Mars, offer science opportunities in asteroid research, and test a way to tug an asteroid off a collision course with Earth.
NASA's Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope, or WFIRST, scheduled for launch around 2024 being designed for servicing and refueling once in space. WFIRST will be stationed a million miles (1.5 million kilometers) fr om Earth at the L2 Lagrange point.
The James Webb Space Telescope, the successor to Hubble, is not designed to be visited after its 2018 launch.
But some engineers have quietly suggested a servicing mission could be considered if the observatory runs into trouble with the complicated choreography needed to extend its power-generating solar panel, unfurl its thermal sunshield, and unfold its segmented gold-coated mirror.

Объявлены параметры бюджета НАСА на 2018 год

Согласно обнародованным данным космическое агентство США получит в 2018 году на свои проекты и текущую деятельность более $20.7 млрд., что значительно больше чем предлагалось ранее. С точки зрения динамики обнародованные данные означают, что если Белый Дом просил на деятельность НАСА $19.092 млрд., Конгресс США $19.872 млрд, а Сенат предлагал $19.592 млрд, то в результате произошедшей в начале года двух летней бюджетной сделки НАСА получило больше средств чем прогнозировалось ранее. Практическим Результатом увеличения явилось то, что:

- агентство продолжит работы над четырьмя из пяти миссиями, которые администрация предлагала отменить;

- будет продолжено финансирование образовательной программы;

-

миссия Restore-L не будет преобразована в программу по развитию технологий и на ее разработку будет потрачено $130 млн

Proving Satellite Servicing
Need extra gas or a tune-up for your satellite? For years, such services were outside the realm of possibility for most spacecraft. But now, one mission will break that paradigm.

Meet OSAM-1 (short for On-orbit Servicing, Assembly, and Manufacturing 1), a robotic spacecraft equipped with the tools, technologies and techniques needed to extend satellites' lifespans - even if they were not designed to be serviced on orbit.
During its mission, the OSAM-1 servicer will rendezvous with, grasp, refuel and relocate a government-owned satellite to extend its life. But OSAM-1's effect will not end there.
The benefits are many. OSAM-1's capabilities can give satellite operators new ways to manage their fleets more efficiently, and derive more value from their initial investment. These capabilities could even help mitigate the looming problem of orbital debris.
Successfully completing this mission will demonstrate that servicing technologies are ready for incorporation into other NASA missions, including exploration and science ventures. NASA is also transferring OSAM-1 technologies to commercial entities to help jumpstart a new domestic servicing industry.

Space Infrastructure Dexterous Robot (SPIDER)
The OSAM-1 spacecraft will include an attached payload called Space Infrastructure Dexterous Robot (SPIDER).
SPIDER includes a lightweight 16-foot (5-meter) robotic arm, bringing the total number of robotic arms flying on OSAM-1 to three. Previously known as Dragonfly during the ground demonstration phase of the NASA Tipping Point partnership, SPIDER will assemble seven elements to form a functional 9-foot (3-meter) communications antenna. The robotically assembled antenna will demonstrate Ka-band transmission with a ground station.
The payload also will manufacture a 32-foot (10-meter) lightweight composite beam using technology developed by Tethers Unlimited of Bothell, Washington. The assembly and manufacturing element of the demonstration will verify the capability to construct large spacecraft structures in orbit.
SPIDER will help mature space technologies with many potential cross-cutting applications, including:

• Enabling new architectures and capabilities for a wide range of government and commercial missions
• Enabling In-space construction of large communications antennae and telescopes
• Eliminating volume limits imposed by rockets
• Replacing some astronaut extravehicular activity tasks with precision robotics
• Introducing the potential for longer mission durations enabled by planned or unplanned maintenance

The Mission Formerly Known as Restore-L
Up until April 2020, OSAM-1 was called Restore-L to highlight how servicing capabilities can return a satellite to its original capability. With the addition of the SPIDER payload, NASA decided to change the mission's name in order to fully encapsulate the expanded scope of the world's first ever servicing, assembly, and manufacturing mission.
OSAM-1 will be the first of multiple planned missions to bring key OSAM technologies to operational status. This foundational mission will demonstrate various world's firsts from the refueling of a satellite not designed to be serviced, to In-space robotic precision assembly. OSAM-2 (formerly known as Archinaut) will be the second installment in the series of demonstrations.

Who Benefits?
NASA, the United States, and commercial industry - and others who also rely on satellites for data services. Already, NASA is incorporating elements of the core OSAM-1 technologies into the architecture for the Journey to Mars.

Bringing OSAM-1 to Life
It takes years of testing, countless hours of design, and five new technologies to make robotic satellite servicing a reality. Here's a breakdown of the key elements of OSAM-1.


Servicing Technologies
1. AUTONOMOUS, REAL-TIME RELATIVE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Sensors, algorithms and a processor join forces, allowing OSAM-1 to rendezvous safely with its client.
2. SERVICING AVIONICS
In addition to ingesting and crunching sensor data, these elements control OSAM-1's rendezvous and robotic tasks.
3. DEXTEROUS ROBOTIC ARMS
Two nimble, maneuverable arms precisely execute servicing assignments. Software comes included.
4. ADVANCED TOOL DRIVE AND TOOLS
Sophisticated, multifunction tools are manufactured to execute each servicing task.
5. PROPELLANT TRANSFER SYSTEM
This system delivers measured amounts of fuel to the client at the right temperature, pressure and rate.

Mission Facts
ORBIT: Polar low Earth orbit (LEO)
CLIENT: A satellite in LEO owned by the U.S. government
OPERATIONS: Autonomous rendezvous and grasping with telerobotic refueling and relocation
MANAGEMENT: The Space Technology Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters and the Satellite Servicing Projects Division at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center

Maxar Ships NASA's OSAM-1 Spacecraft for Building, Servicing Infrastructure in Space
By: Maxar Space Communications | 09.26.2023

Maxar has delivered the OSAM-1 spacecraft to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. The On-orbit Servicing, Assembly and Manufacturing 1 (OSAM-1) mission will be the first to robotically refuel a satellite not designed for fueling or servicing. Maxar will also provide robotic arms that support on-orbit activities, including in-space assembly and manufacturing.

Maxar delivered two major elements in September to Goddard, which is the integration site for OSAM-1:

The spacecraft bus – Built in Palo Alto, California, this is the most maneuverable satellite that Maxar has ever produced. A suite of thrusters gives OSAM-1 unique maneuver capability that offers six degrees of freedom, including the ability to execute "back away" maneuvers. The OSAM-1 spacecraft is based on the reliable Maxar 1300™ series platform. This is also the baseline for NASA's Psyche mission launching in October and the Intelsat 40e satellite that hosts a NASA payload, TEMPO. There are more than 90 Maxar 1300 series spacecraft in orbit today.

SPIDER Pallet – Maxar is also building the Space Infrastructure Dexterous Robot, or SPIDER. The SPIDER pallet is the stowing location on the spacecraft for the robotic arm and the modular antenna components it will assemble in space. This deck also houses a robotic processor, cameras and a camera controller for the assembly mission.

Maxar will deliver Robotic Servicing Arm 1 this fall. Teams are completing development on Robotic Servicing Arm 2, SPIDER and SPIDER's modular antenna, all set for delivery in 2024. OSAM-1 will continue integration and testing at NASA Goddard through 2026.
