2 The mission of HSFL is to: promote innovative engineering and science research for terrestrial and planetary space missions 2 develop, launch, and operate small spacecraft from the Hawaiian Islands to accelerate the validation of new space technologies provide workforce training in all aspects of unmanned space missions promote synergistic collaborations between educational, governmental, and corporate institutions interested in space exploration

3 Major Project Elements Spacecraft Partner with NASA Centers and others to advance small spacecraft design. Design, build, launch, and operate kg small satellite for science and education tasks. Support technology validation missions as well as other University missions. Integration and Test Clean rooms in UH/POST will be used to assemble satellites. Systems integration Thermo-vac testing Vibration/shock testing Payload spin balancing Instruments The HSFL can call on a diverse group of instrument-developing faculty from HIGP and SOEST. A number of businesses in Hawaii also develop a wide array of instrumentation. The HSFL will partner with these organizations to provide technology demonstration opportunities. NASA Centers (Ames and JPL) are interested in joint technology missions. Launch Vehicle and Launch Support Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) Local launch facility and mission support Modify existing S/C PMRF Systems launch pad for rail-fitted Avionics and modified VAFB Scout launcher. Power Telecom Kauai Test Facility Thermal (KTF)/ Sandia National Lab S/W Experience with H/W solid rockets and missile design. Use Super-Strypi launch vehicle. Can lift ~270 kg (594 pounds) to low-earth orbit (400 km). Heritage working with PMRF as on-site vehicle integrator and launch agent. Ground Station & Mission Operations UH/HSFL maintains UHF/VHF receiving stations with Kauai CC and Honolulu CC staff. Ground station provides command and control broadcast as well as data downlink capabilities. Mission Ops Center on POST 5 th floor under development with UH support. 3

4 COSMOS Purpose Comprehensive Open-architecture Space Mission Operations System (COSMOS)* 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 is being developed as a collaboration between HSFL and NASA Ames Research Center under a 3-year NASA EPSCoR grant ( ). * Note: COSMOS is being renamed to: Comprehensive Open-architecture Software for Mission Operations Systems 4

5 COSMOS Architecture - Background Explosive growth in micro and nano satellites. Industry need for comprehensive operations software toolkit Developing hardware concept of Plug-n-Play COSMOS combines Plug-n-Play, standard interfaces and protocols, and common coding practices COSMOS can be used across the spectrum, from conceptual design to mission operations 5

21 COSMOS Multi-satellite Architecture Data can be collected from multiple nodes that live in the same network In the case of multiple satellites, each satellite is a node Nodes are COSMOS-aware Nodes execute COSMOS agents Each agent complies with the COSMOS namespace Multiple ground stations can collect the data and forward the data using COSMOS agents The Mission Operations Center Servers Synchronize the data Parse the data into usable formats COSMOS Tools Visualize the data in archival mode or real time Command and Control scripts 21
