Description

GRC has a need to expand its scenic simulation toolset capability to generate mission trajectory profiles based on low-energy transfer methods, through a sbir PH III award to a past sbir contract to princeton satellite system. Scenic utilizes gsfc orbit determination toolbox (ODTBX) for its simulation capabilities. These capabilities reference user-provided binary spice kernel (BSP) format files which provide motion/velocity profile via a lookup functionality as a function of user-selected time. There is a need for low-energy thrust trajectories that can output motion profiles using the standard BSP format, so those motions can be directly utilized in the existing scenic capabilities without additional modifications. Scenic/ODTBX uses the latest ephemeris BSP files from JPL so scenic would want the low energy toolbox capabilities to also utilize those same gravitational body datasets for consistency. GRC would like the low energy toolbox capability to be provided as part of the deliverable, while also providing documentation and training to scenic communication system engineers so that the toolbox can be utilized after the completion of the task. Princeton satellite systems will port the low energy mission planning toolbox (LEMPT), developed under a NASA phase I sbir
