Abstract

The end of regularly scheduled Microgravity Science Payload (MSP), shuttle mission(s), the severely limited ability to accommodate the existing low temperature flight hardware on other carriers, and the anticipated delays in the development schedule for the International Space Station (ISS) in combination have left low temperature microgravity investigations with few (if any) flight opportunities until several years into the next millennium.

Ultraviolet surface properties of the icy galilean satellites from phase curve analysis

In this study, we use ultraviolet observations from the International Utlraviolet Explorer (IUE) and the Galileo Ultraviolet Spectrometer (UVS) to compose the ultraviolet solar phase curves of the icy galilean satellites. Broadband rotation phase curves from 0.26 to 0.32 microns are constructed in order to examine the rotational behavior of the icy Galilean satellites in the ultraviolet. After normalizing the rotational variations, modeling of the solar phase variations are compared to comparable studies in the visible.

Report on International Standards Organization Activities in Space Environments

During the last year the International Standards Organization has initialed meetings among representatives of the spacefaring nations to develop standardized models for space environments. This work is intended to facilitate the design of joint missions and the development of international markets for spacecraft components. NASA is heavily involved in this effort, and other government agencies are coming on board. This paper describes progress and plans for this activity.
