Description:
|
METEOR, Microsystems Engineering and Technology for
the Exploration of Outer Space Regions, is a
university-based project, whose short-term goal is to
launch and place small payloads in low earth orbit,
and whose long-term goal is to place such payloads on
near earth asteroids and lunar surfaces. The mission
of this student team is to deliver the mission
control procedures for the sub-ortibal launch
scheduled for the Summer of 2007. The mission control
procedures will be an electronic system that contains
descriptions of pre-launch, launch, and post-launch
activities. This electronic system will be able to
present nominal, or expected, procedures and
contingency, or uncertainty, procedures in real time.
The electronic system will allow students to enter
results of pre-launch testing or any issue with the
rocket that may arise and the system will respond
with the action to be taken and will automatically
re-route the procedures accordingly. Information such
as documentation of all necessary tools and equipment
needed for the launch will also be included. Along
with the Mission Control Procedures, this project
involves creating a training program for students to
physically simulate the launch. In the simulation the
students will use the electronic system to physically
simulate all activities leading up to the launch.
Unexpected situations will be interjected into the
simulation allowing the students to practice using
the contingency aspect of the electronic system.
Below is a schematic of METEOR's current design.
