Overview Of The Xnav Program, X-Ray Navigation Using Celestial Sources , Dave Beckett
Small Satellite Conference
Satellite navigation systems rely heavily upon the Global Positioning System (GPS). GPS provides unrivaled performance in measurements of satellite ephemerides. Due to the increasing number of GPS system threats other options are now being evaluated, these new technologies are designed to augment or back-up the GPS system and be applied on other deep space missions. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is developing one such navigation system, referred to as XNAV - “X-ray Source Based NAVigation for Autonomous Position Determination”. Theoretically, this system can use celestial X-ray sources to determine spacecraft attitude and position knowledge anywhere in the solar …

Micro-Inspector Spacecraft An Overview, Hannah Goldberg, Juergen Mueller, Leon Alkalai
Micro-Inspector Spacecraft An Overview, Hannah Goldberg, Juergen Mueller, Leon Alkalai
Small Satellite Conference
JPL has completed design of a small (< 5 kg) spacecraft capable of visual inspection of a host vehicle with support from NASA’s Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD). The Micro-Inspector is designed to have a minimal impact on the host with respect to mass, size, cost, interface, and integration. On orbit, the host provides the separation signal to the Micro-Inspector, ejecting it to autonomously maneuver about the host taking images and communicating them back to the host in real-time. The Micro-Inspector is capable of receiving commands for additional utility. After operations are complete, the Micro-Inspector will go through an end of life disposal, ensuring it is at a safe distance and minimal risk to the host. The Micro-Inspector spacecraft features an FPGA based avionics design with embedded processors, miniaturized celestial sensors and a MEMS-based IMU for navigation, structured light system for hazard avoidance, triple-junction solar cells for power generation and lithiumion batteries for power storage, and a low pressure butane propulsion system, all in a compact and integrated structure, allowing the Micro-Inspector to operate in close proximity to another space object. Extra mass and volume can be used for additional sensors other than visual inspection to provide a more complete analysis of the local space environment. This paper describes the multi-mission utility of the Micro-Inspector and presents an overview of the spacecraft system and subsystem designs, description of a typical inspection mission scenario, and initial hardware demonstrations of key subsystems, partially integrated with each other in a Micro-Inspector testbed at JPL.

Cost-Effective Earth Observation Missions Outcomes And Visions From The International Iaa Study , Rainer Sandau, Larry Paxton, Jaime Esper
Small Satellite Conference
Cost-effective Earth observation missions – how can they be achieved, what are the cost drivers, what are the application areas, and what are the possible obstacles and how are they surmounted? A recently published study1,2 provides a single reference of all aspects connected with cost-effective missions. This paper concentrates on some of the outcomes of that study. User communities which start to conduct or participate in Earth observation missions using small, economical satellites, and associated launches, ground stations, data distributions structures, and space system management approaches are likely to find this information useful.

The Rise And Fall Of The Capital Asset – An Investigation Into The Aerospace Industry Dynamics And Emerging Small Satellite Missions , Stanley Kennedy, Jr., Todd Mosher, Quinn Young
Small Satellite Conference
Many studies have been conducted over the years on the relationship between spacecraft design, mission utility, cost/complexity, and the Aerospace community’s ability to “commoditize” spacecraft designs and/or missions. During the Fifties and Sixties, spacecraft were limited by launch vehicle throw-weight and technical performance limitations, particularly computer processing speeds. During the Seventies and into the Eighties the personal computer revolution enabled more and more processing capability to be utilized in spacecraft bus and mission designs. This resulted in industry developed, large, “Capital” assets that took years to design, develop, integrate, test, and eventually operate. These systems, due to the very nature …

The "Personal Computer" Revolution In Space, Martin Sweeting, Alex Da Silva Curiel, Wei Sun
Small Satellite Conference
The modular microsatellite concept developed by SSTL has been remarkably successful. It has been used on over 25 missions in the last two decades for a wide range of applications and customers. Its design philosophies are discussed, which have permitted the design to evolve over time, and in particular has permitted space missions to benefit quickly from the continuing development of emerging terrestrial commercial-off-the-shelf technologies. Breakthrough technologies are discussed which have led to increases in capability and utility of small satellite missions. Furthermore, it will be shown that the execution of frequent missions brings its own benefits in providing a …

“Trust Yourself To God” : Friar Francisco Pareja And The Franciscans In Florida, 1595-1702, Albert William Vogt
USF St. Petersburg campus Master's Theses (Graduate)
Friar Francisco Pareja represented the pinnacle of the achievement for the Franciscans in Florida during the Spanish colonial period. But who were the Franciscans? Why were they, and Friar Pareja in particular, so successful as missionaries? The bulk of the writing done thus far on the mission system in Florida has concentrated on retelling the lost story of the native peoples who once inhabited the land. The impact of the missions and the Spanish colony weighed heavily on native cultures and the Franciscans role in this has been discussed. However, little has been said about the religious order itself, and …

Position Resolution In Labr3 And Lacl3 Scintillators Using Position-Sensitive Photomultiplier Tubes, Peter F. Bloser, Mark L. Mcconnell, John R. Macri, James M. Ryan, Justin Baker
Space Science Center
Advanced scintillator materials such as LaBr3:Ce and LaCl3:Ce hold great promise for future hard X-ray and gamma-ray astrophysics missions due to their high density, high light output, good linearity, and fast decay times. Of particular importance for future space-based imaging instruments, such as coded-aperture telescopes, is the precise spatial location of individual gamma-ray interactions. We have investigated the position and energy resolution achievable within monolithic (5 cm × 5 cm × 1 cm) LaBr3:Ce and LaCl3:Ce crystals using position-sensitive light readout devices, including a position-sensitive photomultiplier tube and a multi-anode photomultiplier tube. We present the results of these tests and …

Radiation Damage And Activation From Proton Irradiation Of Advanced Scintillators, Peter F. Bloser, Mark L. Mcconnell, John R. Macri, P J. Bruillard, James M. Ryan, W Hajdas
Space Science Center
We present results from a proton accelerator beam test to measure radiation damage and activation in advanced scintillator materials. Samples of LaBr3:Ce and LaCl3:Ce were exposed to protons from 40-250 MeV at the Proton Irradiation Facility of the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. Twelve energy bands were used to simulate the spectrum of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), with different samples exposed to the equivalent of 4 months, 1 year, and 5 years of SAA passage. No significant decrease in light output was found due to radiation damage, indicating that these new scintillator materials are radiation tolerant. High-resolution spectra of …

Space Science Center
We present Monte Carlo simulations of two astronomical gamma-ray telescope concepts based on the ThreeDimensional Track Imager (3- DTI) detector. The 3-DTI consists of a time projection chamber with two-dimensional, crossedstrip micro-well detector readout. The full three- dimensional reconstruction of charged-particle tracks in the gas volume is obtained from transient digitizers, which record the time signature of the charge collected in the wells of each strip. Such detectors hold great promise for advanced Compton telescope (ACT) and advanced pair telescope (APT) concepts due to the very precise measurement of charged particle momenta that is possible (Compton recoil electrons and electron-positron …
