About this file
This Mission Operations Services Requirements Document (MOSRD) details the functional and performance specifications for the Space Weather Next (SW Next) program's Space Weather Observations (SWO) Mission Operations Services (MOS) for the SOL-A observatory. The document outlines requirements for a scalable, multi-mission ground services capability that supports spacecraft and instrument operations at the Sun-Earth Lagrange point 1 (L1).
Key requirements include providing continuous 24/7 solar observations, supporting all mission lifecycle phases, implementing robust configuration management, maintaining high data availability (99.5% minimum), processing telemetry, managing command operations, supporting instrument calibration, and interfacing with NOAA's Antenna Services and Product Services. The mission will leverage existing NESDIS infrastructure at the NOAA Satellite Operations Facility in Suitland, Maryland and the Consolidated Backup facility in Fairmont, West Virginia. The first SOL observatory is expected to launch in 2029 with a 5.5-year design life and consumables for five additional years of operations.

TRUE MSRD-87
The Mission Services shall have a minimum Data Availability of 99.5 percent as measured over any 30-day period.
79 MOSRD-79 4.3.0-2 REQ Mission Operations Services shall have a minimum Operational Availability of 98.9 percent as measured over any contiguous 30-day period.

80 MOSRD-80 4.3.0-3 REQ Mission Operations Services shall have a maximum per-event downtime of two (2) hours in Level 0 mission data processing functionality during nominal observatory operations.
This maximum gap requirement aligns to a SOL requirement and applies during normal operations (plus maintenance and failover activities). There is a more stringent gap requirement during Critical Space Weather Days. This is a broad performance requirement on the system and it is desired to minimize all gaps to much less than this in the design and details of failovers and anomaly resolution.
Planned ground outages should not be adjacent to or coincide with planned observatory data outages.
TRUE MSRD-88
The Mission Services shall have a maximum consecutive downtime of 2 hours in Level 0 mission data processing functionality during the nominal observatory operations.
81 MOSRD-81 4.3.0-4 REQ Mission Operations Services Solar Wind data gaps shall be less than 20 seconds per day during NWS-declared Critical Space Weather Days.
The 20 seconds is the current MOS allocation of the 5 minute data gap allowable as called out in project requirements. This covers Level 0 science data processing only, not all functions of the Mission Services. Activities like routine maintenance procedures, that could potentially affect system performance, do not occur during Critical Space Weather Days. Critical Space Weather is typically any of the following disturbances: S4-S5 solar radiation storms, R4-R5 radio blackouts, and G4-G5 geomagnetic storms. Intervals of Critical Space Weather Days can last between 3 and 21 days.
TRUE MSRD-89
The Mission Services' in situ Solar Wind data gaps shall be less than 20 seconds per day during the NWS-declared Critical Space Weather Days.

This requirement ensures that MOS maintains the same high level of availability during critical space weather days as it does throughout the year. Mission Operations Services do not distinguish between the HAP and non-HAP data hence the same availability requirement applies during all operations. This requirement ensures that the Mission Services is meeting the HAPs data delivery requirement. This requirement also ensures that MOS is meeting the data delivery requirement during solar radiation storm conditions through a level of S4, solar flare conditions through a level of X50 and during Critical Space Weather Days. It also ensures no planned outages are scheduled during critical space weather days.
TRUE MSRD-90
The Mission Services shall achieve a availability of 99.5 percent of level 0 data delivery to Product Services during nominal operations, solar radiation storm conditions through a level of S4, solar flare conditions through a level of X50 and during the NWS-declared Critical Space Weather Days.
83 MOSRD-83 4.3.0-6 REQ Mission Operations Services shall be able to defer planned maintenance activities for up to 21 (TBR) days.
The requirement for availability of High Availability Products and uninterrupted delivery is high during Critical Space Weather Days and for solar flare conditions through a level of X50, so Mission Operations Services must be able to defer activities that could impact availability for a period of time. Intervals of Critical Space Weather Days can last between 3 and 21 days.
