This presentation will introduce topics of note for the Earth Science Constellation (ESC) Mission Operations Working Group (MOWG) meeting Gilbert AZ, December 3-5, 2019
The presentation will introduce topics of note regarding CCS status for the Earth Science Constellation (ESC) Mission Operations Working Group (MOWG).
EOS Aura Mission Status to be presented at the Earth Science Constellation Mission Operations Working Group (MOWG) meeting planned as a virtual meeting from September 29 - October 2, 2020.
EOS Aura Mission Status to be presented at the ESC Mission Operations Working Group (MOWG) meeting planned as a virtual meeting from May 16 - May 19, 2022.
This presentation will discuss Aqua fuel usage and predictions, and extended mission options.
At the end of a mission, satellites embedded in a constellation must first perform propulsive maneuvers to safely exit the constellation before they can begin with the usual end-of-mission activities: deorbit, passivation, and decommissioning. The target orbit for these exit maneuvers must be sufficiently below the remaining constellation satellites such that, once achieved, there is no longer risk of close conjunctions. Yet, the exit maneuvers must be done based on the spacecraft's state of health and operational capability when the decision to end the mission is made. This paper focuses on the recently developed exit strategy for the CloudSat mission to highlight problems and issues, which forced the discarding of CloudSat's original EoM Plan and its replacement with a new plan consistent with changes to the spacecraft's original operational mode. The analyses behind and decisions made in formulating this new exit strategy will be of interest to other missions in a constellation currently preparing to update their End-of-Mission Plan.
This presentation will discuss NASA HQ perspective, current state of the mission, Landsat 7 and Terra exit plans, long term plans for all mission, CARA updates, Spring 2016 IAM series plans and current status, CCS future release plans, and results of covariance calculation meetings.
This presentation applies a covariance realism technique to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Earth Observation System (EOS) Aqua and Aura spacecraft based on inferential statistics. The technique consists of three parts: collection calculation of definitive state estimates through orbit determination, calculation of covariance realism test statistics at each covariance propagation point, and proper assessment of those test statistics.
This will be presented at the International Earth Science Constellation Mission Operations Working Group meeting June 13-15, 2017 to discuss the AquaAura Spring 2017 Inclination Adjust Maneuver series.
This will be presented at the Earth Science Constellation Mission Operations Working Group meeting to discuss Operations Coordination Plan Status.

This presentation will discuss the mathematics and future enhancements to the CCS Control Box and Phasing Analysis Tool (CBA). Various plots will be analyzed to show how maneuvers are detected in the user selected ephemerides and how the violation epoch dates are calculated when a control box violation occurs.
