2005 October 11Chandra Fellows Symposium41 Timeline of ACIS 1978 first X-rays on a WFPC Chip 1984 Proposal for ACIS submitted 1985 NASA Selects ACIS 1985 Select MIT over JPL for management 1988 Drop TI as CCD source, go to LL 1988 ASTRO-D (ASCA) test bed for LL CCDs 1988 Review before Phase C/D contract 1989 Slow start, 1990 Settled on LL CCD design 1992 Descope to high orbit and 4 mirrors, 2 FP instruments Final CCD design and flight unit production starts 1995 Crisis on schedule, William Mayer takes over as Project Manager, MIT goes into crisis mode Decide to use 2 chip for initial calibration 1996 Only two BI chips good, use on S3, S Cracks in filters, change to polyimide and recalibrate 1996 Flexprint failures, need to fix CCDs on flight paddles 1997 Contamination on CCDs in cal at MIT PSU microprobe shows low Na and K 1997 Calibration of 2C and flight unit 1997 Vac test of full instrument on SIM 1998 Full test of S/C TV at TRW, ACIS door fails to open 1998 Design safety for door opening 1999 All door tests look good, no test in STS before deploy 1999 Launched
