Cc: Smith, Daniel C.; Dunham, Larry; Slater, Mark A.; Crabb, Bill; Waldo, Greg; Krol, Stan; Setty, Amar O; Wenz, Mike Subject: TCS Analysis for October 2013 Venus Observation All, For the TCS analysis for planned October 2013 Venus Observation, EM: MOSES 1067 (Light Shield Thermal Analysis for Venus Observations) was reviewed. This EM addresses the concern of a direct solar load striking the HST light shield internal baffles, located inside the aperture, resulting in temperatures approaching 300 degF. Black paint on the baffles is prone to outgassing when temperatures exceed 250 degF resulting in potential contamination of the primary and secondary mirrors. Further studies performed in 2004 concluded that the outgassing range could be extended to 300 degF. The data and observations from the EM MOSES 1067 analysis and the study in 2004 were compared to the upcoming October 2013 Venus observation to confirm compliance with CARDs 2.2.1.7 and 3.1.7.3. This comparison will serve as the basis for the TCS analysis as there is no HST thermal flight telemetry (baffle temperature monitors) in the area of the direct solar load. Analysis documented in EM: MOSES 1067 indicate that the peak baffle temperature reached 220 degF with HST configured in the Venus Observation attitude (46.3 degrees from the +V1 axis sun angle) over a single orbit and the sun illuminating inside the aperture for seven minutes. After 15 minutes the temperatures exceeded 250 degF.

60. FRR: Venus Proposal 13047 P. 60October 16, 2013 Backup Material TCS Analysis for October 2013 Venus Observation (Cont’d) Additional analysis with a configuration similar to the proposed October 2013 Venus Observation showed that the peak baffle temperature reached 171 degF with HST configured in the Venus Observation attitude for three consecutive orbits and the sun illuminating inside the aperture for two minutes each orbit (reference plot from EM MOSES 1067 below). Again, after 15 minutes the temperatures exceeded 250 degF. Both analyses conclude that pointing inside the aperture while HST is in sunlight can be tolerated for at least 15 minutes without the temperature of the black paint on the baffles causing contamination issues.

62. FRR: Venus Proposal 13047 P. 62October 16, 2013 Backup Material TCS Analysis for October 2013 Venus Observation (Cont’d) The October 2013 Venus Observation proposal consists of visits scheduled over six consecutive orbits with HST configured with the sun pointed 46.6 degrees from the +V1 axis and the sun illuminating inside the aperture for a maximum of 1 minute 35 seconds. Note, HST’s maximum previous exposure to sunlight was 3 minutes 12 seconds (January 27, 2011). Although, CARD 3.1.7.3 (HST Sun Pointing Limits) will require a waiver since HST line-of-sight will be pointed closer than 50 degrees to the sun, per the EM MOSES 1067 data CARD 2.2.1.7 (OTA Light Shield Baffle Thermal Limits) is satisfied as the baffle temperatures will not exceed 250 degF with sunlight exposure much shorter than 15 minutes. CARD 2.2.1.7 protects for light shield baffle temperatures exceeding 300 degF. Also, the solar intensity is lower in October than the December-January timeframe resulting in cooler temperatures overall. With a similar configuration as the EM analysis coupled with shorter sun exposure durations and lower sun intensity, TCS SE confirms the configuration can be tolerated as it poses no threat of contamination.
