Status of activities on the project · The «NAVIGATOR» Service Module is under Ground Developmental Testing, the Flight Model will be integrated in 2006, the first launch: 2007 («Spectrum-R» and «Electro» missions). The Т170М Telescope is developed on the basis of T-170 Telescope, which had passed the main part of the Ground Developmental Testing Program. Release of the Working Documentation on Telescope and its systems is coming to end/ At the end of 2006 the manufacturing of the Telescope Qualification Model units will be completed and the dummies of the Primary and Secondary Mirrors will be manufactured.. In 2007 the following activities are planned: Telescope units off-line test, Telescope Qualification Model assembly and its vibration/static tests. 5/26/2019
The project development schedule 5/26/2019
Problems on the WSO/UV project Works on the Instrumental Compartment and External Instruments are behind of the general schedule because the Approved Scientific Instrumentation Complete Set is absent. The Schedule of work on the Scientific Instrumentation is not agreed with the Directive Schedule on the WSO/UV project. To provide the operational orbit in the L2 neighborhood the activities on the Space Platform are necessary. The activities include replacement of the Radio Complex by the one, that provides scientific data transmission at bit rate up to 1 Mbps uplink and downlink for a distance of 1,8x106 km. 5/26/2019
