14 Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) Highlights The 2010 budget provides $497 million for SCaN, a $86 million decrease from 2009 $42 M increase in Network Services $128M decrease to Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) Replenishment offset by increase in reimbursable funding Continue development of the optical terminal and ground-based receiver that will demonstrate the utility of high rate Optical Communications on the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) spacecraft in the 2012 timeframe Continue to provide enabling communications services to NASA's human and robotic flight missions and conduct comprehensive studies to address future sustainment and upgrade requirements for the agency s communications networks Includes discrete Construction of Facilities funding to begin construction of a new 34- Meter Beam Waveguide Antenna (Deep Space Station 35) in Canberra, Australia Continue development of two Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) replenishment satellites for launch in April 2012 and February 2013 to ensure the government s high data rate relay satellite capability through 2016 National Aeronautics and Space Administration 14

15 SCaN FY 2009 & FY 2010 Plans Continue networks proficiency level across FY09 and FY10 for such spaceflight missions as: Space Shuttle, ISS, Hubble Space Telescope, MESSENGER, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Dawn, Cassini, New Horizons, Chandrayaan-1, Phoenix EDL, Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, GOES-O, Glory, and Kepler FY 2009 Plans Develop DSN sustainment plans to replace aging antenna and provide needed robustness for deep space missions TDRS Replenishment Preliminary Design Review and Non-Advocate Review Continue to define Lunar communications requirements Continue to advance cross support opportunities with International Space Agencies Continue development of the LADEE optical communications flight demonstration Communication Navigation and Networking re-configurable Testbed (CoNNeCT) Preliminary Design Review and Critical Design Review FY 2010 Plans Initiate construction of a new 34-Meter beam waveguide antenna, Deep Space Station 35, in Canberra, Australia SGSS Mission Definition Review TDRS Replenishment Critical Design Review TDRS Replenishment Mission Operations Review, Ground Test Readiness Review, and Ground Terminal Pre-Ship Review CoNNeCT Test Readiness Review and Systems Acceptance Review National Aeronautics and Space Administration 15

16 Why Optical Communications? Mission Productivity Optical Communications provides higher data rates for less spacecraft space, weight, and power burden compared to RF technology Enables greater science return over spacecraft life thus gaining higher mission utilization Efficient Earth-based Receivers Higher data rates allow more science spacecraft to share the same Earthbased optical receivers Migration of high rate mission data results in fewer Earth antennas needed to satisfy requirements Bring online during 70m phase out National Aeronautics and Space Administration 16

17 FY 2010 Budget Request Highlights Launch Services Program (LSP) The 2010 budget provides $83 million for Launch Services, a $5 million decrease from 2009 Missions will be responsible for costs associated with Delta II O&M Supports up to 13 planned launches of NASA payloads through FY 2010 (2 advisory roles) Supporting ~30 missions in early development or early phases before launch LSP continues to work closely with other government agencies and the launch industry, to ensure safe, reliable, on-time, and cost-effective commercial launch opportunities are available on a wide range of launch systems Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) The 2010 budget provides $4M for AMS Integration AMS is a Department of Energy- sponsored, 16 nation international cosmic-ray particle physics experiment planned for the ISS that will look for dark matter, antimatter, and strange matter AMS hardware will be ready to support a 4 th Quarter FY 2010 Space Shuttle launch to the ISS Currently manifested on Shuttle flight STS-134 planned for September 2010 National Aeronautics and Space Administration 17

18 FY 2010 Budget Request Highlights Rocket Propulsion Test (RPT) The 2010 budget provides $46 million for RPT, a $4 million increase from 2009 Complete the Rocket Propulsion Test bottoms-up review and strategic assessment to align test requirements to test capabilities and produce the ten year Master Rocket Propulsion Test Plan Focus on protecting the core competency health using Continuous Risk Management Continue to improve alliance with DoD through successful execution of the National Rocket Propulsion Test Alliance Crew Health and Safety (CHS) The 2010 budget provides $9 million for CHS Continue to identify and leverage the development of clinical care capabilities to seek opportunities to partner with commercial entities to miniaturize and maximize existing medical capabilities for current and future exploration requirements (e.g. Lightweight Trauma Module Space Act Agreement with the military) Human Space Flight Operations (HSFO) The 2010 budget provides $115 million for HSFO Consolidation/centralization of Flight Crew Operations budgets in SSP, ISS and CxP Funds required discrete multi-program functions and capabilities related to human space flight that support all SOMD programs now and for future support of the Constellation program Includes funding for Agency high priority construction projects National Aeronautics and Space Administration 18

19 Diligently Working Our Challenges Besides the technical challenges that often arise, we are carefully addressing our programmatic challenges Maintaining a high quality Space Shuttle workforce during fly-out through the use of appropriate retention strategies Commercial Resupply Services contracts were awarded in December, but significant uncertainty still remains regarding ISS Cargo Crew Services availability post Shuttle retirement Options for ISS operations beyond 2016 will be evaluated during the Human Space Flight Review announced on 7 May 2009; Need a decision by summer 2009 and if not extended, additional funds are required in FY 2013 and FY 2014 for decommissioning Conducting comprehensive studies to address future sustainment and upgrade requirements for all of our communications networks that support science and human spaceflight missions Properly maintain, repair, refurbish and/or replace Deep Space Network assets as necessary to maintain current reliability Working with alternative launch providers to fill the current gap in lift capability left by the retirement of the Delta II launch vehicle Continuing efforts to maintain aging rocket propulsion test facilities by maintaining the correct suite of test facilities and prioritizing modernization and maintenance projects in order to meet Agency propulsion test requirements National Aeronautics and Space Administration 19

20 Transitional Year Safely fly the Space Shuttle, meet our International Partner commitments, and continue to efficiently and responsibly retire the Space Shuttle Major assembly of the ISS is complete by the end of This is a result of a world-wide endeavor to build and operate the most ambitious research platform in space Implementing the Architectural Roadmap for NASA s Space Communications that will maintain the health of the existing networks, as well as achieve a consolidated network operational environment with remote back-up capability NASA is fully committed to improving network quality of service and reducing operational risks and costs when addressing spaceflight requirements. SCaN is managing multiple technology demonstrations for potential advances/savings, and these include Optical Communications, CoNNeCT, and Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) Investigating ways to provide medium launch capability due to Delta II launch vehicle retirement National Aeronautics and Space Administration 20
