1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scope

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the effort to be contracted in support of the Goddard Space

Flight Center (GSFC) Mars Sample Return (MSR) Capture, Containment and Return System

(CCRS) for the design, fabrication, assembly, testing, and delivery of the Spin Eject Mechanism

(SEM).

1.2 MSR CCRS Overview

MSR is an effort to bring samples of Martian rocks and soil back to Earth, where they can be investigated in unprecedented detail, using all the capabilities of terrestrial laboratories. It is part of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, a long-term effort of robotic exploration of the Red Planet.

NASA is collaborating with its various centers and the European Space Agency (ESA) to develop the advanced technologies and hardware needed for the campaign.

The sample return mission architecture is designed to continue the work begun by NASA's Mars

2020 rover. The 2020 rover will collect samples on Mars and stash them on the planet’s surface for subsequent return to Earth. A follow-on campaign will include NASA-led Sample Retrieval

Lander (SRL) that would launch the retrieved samples into Mars orbit, and an ESA-led Earth

Return Orbiter (ERO) that would rendezvous with the samples in Mars orbit and bring them back to Earth (Figure 1-1).

Figure 1-1: MSR Architectural Overview

1-2

CCRS is the payload on the ERO, shown in Figure 1-2Error! Reference source not found..

The main functions of CCRS are:

• Capture, containing and orientating the Orbiting Sample (OS)

• Transferring contained OS to the CCRS clean zone

• Performing Earth Entry System (EES) in-flight assembly

• Protect EES from micro meteoroid damage

• Precision separation of EES from ERO

• Delivery of EES with contained OS to Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR)

Figure 1-2: CCRS Functional Description (Reference Only)

1.3 Spin Eject Mechanism

The Spin Eject Mechanism (SEM) is an integral part of the CCRS. It is responsible for restraining the EES during launch, cruise, and robotic operations while in Martian orbit. To facilitate robotic operations, the SEM requires a hollow inner diameter for robotic access to install the Contained

Orbiting Sample (C-OS) SCV Lid, and EES Lid onto the EES Aeroshell. Once all these components are assembled, shown in Figure 1-4. The SEM is then responsible for restraining the

EES during transport back to Earth, and finally ejecting the EES safely back to Earth.

Images detailing the CCRS architecture are shown in Error! Reference source not found. Figure

1-3 . The SEM is part of the primary load path into the EES for all mission stages.

Figure 1-4: EES Assembly Description (Reference Only)

1-4

1.4 Basic Description

In its most basic description, the SEM can be imagined as a hollow cylinder that provides a deployable structural load path between the CCRS Structure and EES. This interface needs to be strong enough to react launch loads while also remaining separable to provide precise and controlled ejection energy into the EES during the payload ejection event to return the payload to

Earth.

Figure 1-5: EES-SEM Interface (Reference Only)

The design envelope for these components will be controlled by Mechanical Interface Control documents outlined in MSR-CCRS-ERM-SPEC-0002.

Note: Images shown in Error! Reference source not found.Figure 1-2 through Figure 1-5 are notional design concepts for reference only. These do not represent a flight proven design.

3 HARDWARE DELIVERABLES

3.1 Hardware Definitions

3.1.1 Flight Model (FM)

A Flight Model (FM) is the actual developmental end item that is intended for deployment and operations in a space environment. It is subjected to formal functional and environmental acceptance testing as described in Section 8.

3.1.2 Flight Spare

3.1.2 A Flight Spare is a fully qualified spare end item. It is subjected to the same formal functional and environmental acceptance testing as the FM.DELETED

3.1.3 Engineering Test Unit (ETU)

An Engineering Test Unit (ETU) is a full-scale, high-fidelity unit that demonstrates critical aspects of the engineering processes involved in the development of the operational FM as outlined below:

• Intended to closely resemble the FM to the maximum extent possible

• Demonstrates function, form, fit or any combination thereof at a scale that is deemed to be representative of the operation in its operational environment

• Built and tested to a full test program to establish confidence that the FM will function in the expected environments, as described in Section 8.

• Provide validation of test facilities and Ground Support Equipment (GSE) and the related procedures prior to testing the FM

• Used for functional qualification, failure survival demonstration, life testing, and parameter drift checking

• Undergo critical environmental testing to verify system performance and buy down risk for FM builds

• Used to correlate dynamic model to tested values via rigorous ground and environmental testing

3.1.4 Engineering Development Unit (EDU)

An Engineering Development Unit (EDU) is a full-scale, high-fidelity unit that demonstrates critical aspects of the engineering processes involved in the development of the operational FM similar to an ETU but does not need to undergo or survive environmental testing as is required for an ETU units, as described in Section 8.

3.1.5 Assembly Integration & Test Model (AM)

An Assembly Integration & Test Model (AM) is a full-scale simplified Structural Thermal

Model (STM). It must possess flight-like mass and thermal properties but is not required to be mechanically functional or contain any mechanized components.

3-2

3.1.6 Prototype (PT)

Prototypes (PT) are early “Proof of Concept” units intended to buy down risk for subsequent builds. Prototypes could be a scaled mockup or full-size versions of critical assemblies or sub-assemblies. Prototypes may be fabricated out of rapid prototyped parts (3D printing, plastic, or metal) and inexpensive Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) components. The intent of these types of PT units are to verify and provide confidence that the overall mechanism kinematics and mechanism design is sound and robust.
