OMES-III LEO/Ozone RTO

Task Name: Systems Engineering Support for OzoneSat PDR

Period of Performance: 6/1/2022 – 5/31/2023

Background

NOAA is developing the next generation JPSS weather satellite portfolio. This portfolio, named the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Program, represents a monumental shift away from the large multi-instrument JPSS satellites in favor of multiple constellations made up of smaller single instrument satellites. The goals of these next generation satellites are to be developed, built, tested, and launched with less complexity, time, and cost while providing more useful scientific measurements than a JPSS-like follow-on mission. The LEO Program will be comprised of several multi-satellite constellations that are organized into projects. At a minimum the projects within the LEO Program will provide replacement data for all current JPSS instruments but may be called upon to provide replacement data that is currently provided through international agreements and/or third party private industry should those sources of data become unavailable in the future.

Similar to JPSS development, NOAA has delegated formulation authority to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) for system development, management, & eventual procurement.

GSFC LEO Program systems engineering is responsible for leading all technical aspects of the formulation activities of the projects/constellations.

NOAA has recently received authorization to begin development of a new ozone detecting “smallsat” constellation that will provide more robust science data than JPSS’s current ozone instrument, Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS). As part of this initiative the LEO Program has stood up the OzoneSat Project and has tasked the project with the following:

1. Explore the viability of a small constellation of ozone detecting satellites.

a. Conduct an operational demonstration mission, OzoneSat-1, before use in an operational mission.

b. OzoneSat-1 shall be a Class-D Mission per NPR-8705.4 Risk Classification of

NASA Payloads.

c. OzoneSat-1 shall be on-orbit within 24 months but no later than 36 months.

d. OzoneSat-1 shall have a minimum on-orbit mission life of at least 12 months.

2. Provide resiliency for the JPSS OMPS instrument in the event of an on-orbit failure.

a. The OzoneSat-1’s instrument, OzInst, shall have performance greater than or equal to OMPS.

b. Current OMPS specifications:

i. Coverage: Mapper- 0.3-0.38 µm; Profiler- 0.25-0.31 µm

ii. Nadir Resolution: Mapper- 50 km; Profiler- 250km

iii. Swath: Mapper- 2800 km

iv. Average Data Rate: 409,600 bps

v. Average Power: 120 Watts

vi. Mass: 56 kilograms

c. Candidate Ozlnst instrnments shall have a cmTent TRL level capable of suppo1ting an on-orbit deployment in as little as 24 months.

d. Have a minimum on-orbit life of at least 12 months.

3. Potentially utilize the early morning orbit for ozone detection that will be available after the demise ofNOAA's legacy POES satellites.

Task Description

The contractor shall perform all necessa1y systems engineering functions to take the OzoneSat-1

Mission from Pre-Phase A development to PDR within the cmTent task period. As a Class-D mission the contractor will recommend the tailoring of requirements, documentation, reviews, and development in order to meet th.is ambitious project schedule. The contractor shall prioritize mission schedule, cost, and functionality in that order while also being mindful of what represents the best value to the Government and the LEO Program.
