1 Comprehensive Open-architecture Solution for Mission Operations Systems Dr. Trevor C. Sorensen January, 2016

2 COSMOS Purpose Original Purpose: To develop a comprehensive open system of software and hardware tools that supports the design, testing, and operations of one or more spacecraft and is easily adaptable for adding spacecraft and porting to Mission Operations Centers (MOCs) at HSFL, NASA Ames Research Center, and other MOCs. COSMOS was developed as a collaboration between HSFL and NASA Ames Research Center under a 3-year NASA EPSCoR grant ( ). There was a 1-year no-cost extension. COSMOS originally stood for Comprehensive Open-architecture Space Mission Operations System but was changed in 2014 to reflect to more generalized applicability. 2

20 COSMOS Executive Operator (CEO) Provides Situational Awareness (Monitoring) of all Spacecraft Simultaneously Initial design supports up to 100 spacecraft Three different selectable levels of monitoring Low S/C ID, status of S/C, status of P/L, GS contact status Medium shows orbit position and data, day/umbra status (C/D T), GS contact status (C/D T), status of SS, S/C or ACS modes, etc. High Similar to main display of MOST giving detailed information MOST can be launched to provide detailed subsystem information or commanding capability for any spacecraft Displays orbit tracks of all spacecraft (filter to select specific s/c) Can handle actual and simulated spacecraft simultaneously Flight Dynamics Display shows relative positions of spacecraft Communications Display shows satellite communication crosslinks (ideal for constellation monitoring) 20

21 CEO Features (cont.) Provides Monitoring of Ground Stations Top-level status of all ground stations in network Can launch GSCT for more detailed monitoring and control Provides Management of MOC Operations Monitors allocation of COSMOS tools to spacecraft Monitors personnel resource utilization Access console logs (current or archived) Communicate with one or MOC positions Monitors COSMOS System Performance Monitors console computer performance and utilization Monitors status of COSMOS tools and data flow between the COSMOS elements including comm ports and links Launch any COSMOS Tools MPST, MOST, GSCT, DMT, TBCT, Analysis Tools 21
