The feasibility of using a Cf-252 neutron source in conjunction with a capture and/or decay gamma ray method for elemental analysis on lunar or planetary missions was tested. The general problems of using a Cf-252 neutron source for both decay and capture gamma ray analysis in terrestrial environments included the determination of the capture gamma ray spectra by neutron absorption in various metals used for the space hardware, Cf-252 source encapsulation materials, shielding, geometry, and optimum source size for a space mission. Computer data reduction and data transmission techniques were also investigated.
The Dynamic Operational Requirements and Cost Analysis Program (DORCA 2) is described. The computer program provides a top level analysis tool for NASA and relies on a man machine interaction to optimize results based on external criteria. The computer program relies heavily on outside sources to provide cost information and vehicle parameters. Given data describing mission, vehicles, payloads, containers, space facilities, schedules, cost values, and costing procedures, the program computes flight schedules, cargo manifests, vehicle fleet requirements, acquisition schedules, and cost summaries. The program is designed to consider earth orbit, lunar, interplanetary, and automated satellite missions.
