1 Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office This document is subject to export controls under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and may not be disclosed without prior permission from NASA Robotic Refueling Mission RRM Phase 2 Overview Rory Casey rory.p.casey@nasa.gov 301-614-5041

2 Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office This document is subject to export controls under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and may not be disclosed without prior permission from NASA Robotic Refueling Mission RRM Phase 2 objectives are follow-on to the original RRM objectives to advance robotic servicing technology using innovative robotic tools and techniques to demonstrate on-orbit servicing by remotely manipulating legacy satellite interfaces that were not designed to be manipulated robotically Robotic Tools WCT, SCT, MFT, ENT Task Boards TB1, TB2 – Various Demonstration Interfaces Phase 1 MFT Adapters PMA, ACA, TVA, TCA Coolant Valve Panel Robotic Refueling Mission (RRM) is proving robotic satellite-servicing for legacy spacecraft 2

3 Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office This document is subject to export controls under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and may not be disclosed without prior permission from NASA Robotic Refueling Mission RRM Phase 1 (STS-135) – Structure, 4 Tools, 2 Task Boards – Mission Objective - Demonstrate Robotic Refueling capabilities. Success - January 2013. Flowed ~0.3 Liter Ethanol through the System – Other Objectives – Cut Wires; Remove Caps; Cut and Fold MLI; Manipulate Fasteners, Connectors, Plugs General Success. Un-Fasten/Re-fasten Velcro-secured MLI & Cut Ground Wire not attempted due to time constraints RRM Phase 2A (HTV-4, 8/4/2013) Resupply-1 – RRM On-Orbit Transfer Cage (ROTC) is mechanically fastened to JEM Airlock Slide Table (also compatible w/ JOTI) – Task Board 3 with (4) tool adapters to mate with mechanical and electrical interfaces (then de-mate), pressure test system – Multi-Function Tool (MFT from Phase 1) will be used for TB3 operations RRM Phase 2B (ATV5 – NET June 2014 ) Resupply-2 – VIPIR Visual Inspection Poseable Invertebrate Robot tool Articulating, deployable, borescope close-up inspection camera (34-inch length) – Task Board 4 with (1) Adapter, VIPIR Tube path with internal inspection target and Solar Cell Experiment MFT/Adapter mates with SMA Receptacle Array and Verifies Continuity RRM History 3

4 Satellite Servicing Capabilities Office This document is subject to export controls under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and may not be disclosed without prior permission from NASA Robotic Refueling Mission  RRM On-orbit Transfer Cage Facilitates RRM ORU Exchange between JEM & SPDM – IVA crew installs Transfer Cage to JEM Airlock Slide Table, attaches ORUs (Task Boards and Tool) – Upon Return to JEM, IVA Removes and Stows ORUs, Detaches and Stows Transfer Cage – Transfer Cage Can Attach Directly to the JEM Airlock Slide Table or to JOTI. Together, Provide a Structural Base to React SPDM Loads during ORU Exchange – Transfer Cage Can Maximize JEM Airlock Hardware Throughput and Minimize IVA time & Airlock Cycles Can accommodate an All OUT, All IN exchange - TB3, TB4 & VIPIR Inspection Tool OUT; TB2 & Safety Cap Tool IN Or Staged Exchange – depending on ORU arrival; Crew, Air Lock & SPDM Availability RRM Resupply 4
