Command and Control Software Development

The future of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) depends on its innovation and efficiency in the coming years. With ambitious goals to reach Mars and explore the vast universe, correct steps must be taken to ensure our space program reaches its destination safely. The interns in the Exploration Systems and Operations Division at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) have been tasked with building command line tools to ease the process of managing and testing the data being produced by the ground control systems while its recording system is not in use. While working alongside full-time engineers, we were able to create multiple programs that reduce the cost and time it takes to test the subsystems that launch rockets to outer space.

Spaceport Command and Control System Software Development

The control system for the Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion capsule contains a multitude of displays for use in displaying information like vehicle health, sensor information, life support, etc. Currently users in the Launch Control Center (LCC) are using a list-based selection Graphical User Interface (GUI) to open various displays. However the display names are not intuitive as to what the display looks like nor what data is presented in a display. My project involves adding additional functionality to the current display selection GUI utilizing thumbnail images of each display for easy browsing. This new GUI allows users to find their desired display much faster without needing to memorize the layout of every display based only on the display's name.

A History of Orion Mission Design, Copernicus Software Development, and the Artemis I Trajectory

This paper describes the history of the on-orbit trajectory design and optimization for the Orion spacecraft at NASA JSC, from the initial design through the execution of the Artemis I test flight. In parallel, the Copernicus trajectory optimization tool was also being developed and was the main tool used for Orion trajectory design during this period. Finally, the paper gives an overview of the Artemis I trajectory that was flown during the Artemis I mission from November 16 - December 11, 2022.
