Summary of Scope of Work (cont.)

ISS RPOC

Work in support of Integrated Guidance Navigation & Control (IGN&C) assessments related to oversight of commercial cargo and crew vehicles in proximity to the ISS

• Analyze the spacecraft design and the RPOC capabilities of the vehicles flying to/from the ISS. The analysis of the vehicles, trajectories, and operations includes simulation of the vehicle, the ISS, and the environment. The vehicles included in this effort support the Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) Program, the Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCAP) Program, and the follow-on CRS-2 Program (includes Sierra Space’s Dream Chaser).

RPOC assessments for the upgraded JAXA cargo vehicle known as HTV-X as well as private space stations such as the Axiom Space Station will also be required.

• Develop simulation and analysis tools for each of the vehicles using the existing NASA/JSC simulation development environments. These software tools will be used to support vehicle design and development evaluations, mission design assessments, ISS requirements analysis and verification, and ISS and crew safety evaluations.
