13. 8 marts 2009 Mission Put a remote operated vehicle on the moon Participate in the GLXP challenge

14. 8 marts 2009 Google Lunar X prize 20 million $ 1 st prize 5 million $ 2 nd prize 5 x 1 million $ prize

15. 8 marts 2009 To win Be the first team Private funding Get to the moon Drive/move 500 m Send back “video”

16. 8 marts 2009 GLXP mission requirements RequirementEuroluna plan Unspecified payload 10 MB transmitted to craftMinimum 64 MB memory Roam 500mDrive, 1 cm/s Colour camera with pan tilt and zoom capabilities, minimum resolution 0,3 milliradians per pixel Multiple pinhole cameras with digital zoom, resolution of 3000*3000 pixels Videos

17. 8 marts 2009 Euroluna technical solution One integrated craft Small rover Bi prob rocket motor Solar powered Minimum design of space component.

18. 8 marts 2009 Key mission parameters Departure from LEO (800 km) Trajectory: Weak Stability Boundary Design: no redundancy Time planning: launch opportunity end 2009

19. 8 marts 2009 Romit Subsystems 1.PROPULSION 2.POWER 3.ATTITUDE CONTROL 4.ONBOARD CPU 5.WHEELS AND MOTORS 6.GPS 7.CAMERAS 8.COMMUNICATION 9.STRUCTURAL CONNECTIONS

20. 8 marts 2009 Thermal Analysis Design temperature in space: -20 - +50 ° C Design temperature on the moon: +30 - +50 ° C This leads to an acceptable α/ε of between 0.65 and 0.88 The outer coating: shade of grey and heat conducting

21. 8 marts 2009 Other specs HAL specs (linux) Connections: USB Operation (out of rocket, attitude control, burn 3100 m/s, wait 4 month, turn around, break, land..) Link budget: large disc needed.

22. 8 marts 2009 Mechanical and vibration analysis Mechanical issues on connection between the two tanks. Vibration analysis not made yet, but assumed to be no serious problem…

23. 8 marts 2009 Link budget

24. 8 marts 2009

25. Solar cell navigation (!) By measuring the solar input to the 6 solar cells, we get a rough direction/orientation of the spacecraft. Power measurement can handle this ?

26. 8 marts 2009

28. SystemConsumption/Production in Watt Motors10 W for normal operation, 5 w/motor for exceptions Camera3 W Motor for turning camera1 W Computer1.5 W Radio Transmitter3 W Production with 3 layer solar cells, max 17 W Power consumption

29. 8 marts 2009

30. Trajectory design Weak Stability boundary route Advantages: all launches can be used Disadvantage: time to moon, precision

31. 8 marts 2009

33. Mission plan outline

34. 8 marts 2009 Mission plan TimeAction 0Ejection from storage bay, Health check, status of all systems. Transmit to ground control Use GPS, navigation cameras to determine position Calculate orbit, using position data Calculate time to burn (T1). Change attitude for 1 st burn, initiate rotation about longitudinal axis

35. 8 marts 2009 TimeAction T1First burn, constant GPS position measured for monitoring Position determined from GPS, Earth-Moon- Sun images. Course compliance monitored for possible corrections Calculate time till arrival in hyperbolic trajectory, T2 Determine whether there is fuel enough for orbiting the Moon or if landing has to be immediate.

36. 8 marts 2009 TimeAction T2Arrival in Moon Hyperbolic trajectory. Decision is carried out; attitude corrected and thruster fired If we obtain a circular orbit, Newtonian height and velocity are calculated and correlated with crater images. Results are transmitted to ground control Calculate optimal landing place and time (T3) T3Initiate landing sequence Send confirmation of successful landing

37. 8 marts 2009 Moon operation mission plan Given by GLXP requirements Turn craft if upside down, drive 500 m Long term survival prize for restart after lunar night. Insulate components, other options ?

38. 8 marts 2009 Discussion Main conceptual design frozen Mechanical design still evolving Offer for launch end of 2009 – but maybe Geo Transfer orbit in 2010 We need to go commercial off the shelf, rather than custom designed.
