  5. Personnel Changes since last Workshop • Personnel update: • Richard Lynch has rejoined the team as the JSC Systems Engineer • Robby Estep has taken over as the MSS Manager • Ray Ohl is the ISIM optical lead • Hal Bremmer is the project’s scheduling lead • Claudia Krogel has joined the Mission Systems Team • Lisa Link is the point of contact in the CM Office

  6. Project Status • General: • All observatory components, except for the spacecraft, have successfully completed their preliminary design reviews • ISIM CDR held in March • All science instruments have successfully completed their critical design reviews • LRD moving to June 2014; Mission CDR moving to March 2010 • Will have 7 months of critical path slack; so the ship date only slipped by 8 months • Maintain ISIM deliveries • Maintain near term OTE, Sunshield and Spacecraft milestones • Not sure about plans for the next Partner’s Workshop with the upcoming major reviews • Observatory: • Lower level Spacecraft PDR’s underway • JWST full scale core test is underway • Completed the Sunshield Membrane Management System (MMS) delta PDR • First spacecraft simulator delivered to the ISIM software lab at GSFC • Ground System: • The Ka band upgrades required to support JWST L&EO and normal operations have been completed at the DSN Canberra and Goldstone Sites • NGAS hosted an open house to mark the grand opening of the “Webb Telescope Control Room” in M8. The control room will be operated using CCTS hardware and software

  12. Program Status and Recent Progress (Continued) • Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) • Successfully completed ISIM Level CDR in March • Good progress on other ISIM components, ISIM Command and Data Handling (IC&DH) unit, ISIM Remote Services Unit (IRSU), structure, etc • Instruments: • MIRI • MIRI Verification Model (VM) completed it’s second cryo test • Selected flight and spare detectors and built into Focal Plane Module’s (FPM’s) • Instrument shield (for cryo cooler) concept review held last week • NIRSpec • Selection of flight detectors agreed to by NASA & ESA • Instrument CDR successfully held • Development Model (DM) cryo testing underway • Flight Model (FM) integration underway • NIRCam • Selected flight detectors for NIRCam • Completed bonding and vibration testing of the NIRCam Engineering Test Unit (ETU) Optical Bench • FGS • 3 of 4 FGS flight detectors (including the spare) have been selected • Completed first ETU cryo pupil illumination test • All ETU hardware installed on optical bench or in formal testing

  16. Project Status (continued) • Remaining Major 2009 events: • ISIM flight structure delivery to the GSFC from ATK in August • MIRI flight Focal Plane system delivery to RAL in August (TBR) • Sunshield 1/3 Scale Test Readiness Review (TRR) in August at NGAS • Spacecraft Bus PDR, July 28-30 at NGAS • Cryo Cooler CDR in June at NGAS • Flight NIRSpec Micro Shutter system delivery to ESA in September • Modified Pathfinder NIRSpec Detector system delivery to ESA July • Optical Telescope Element CDR scheduled for October at NGAS • Sun Shield CDR scheduled for November at NGAS • Mission Critical Design Review in March 2010 at the GSFC 16

  17. Worry List • Cost increases • Late ISIM deliveries • Low cost reserves • Problematic use of the Space Cargo Transporter System (SCTS) • The project has included costs for a JWST unique shipping container in this year’s budget • Working with NGAS and Arianespace on requirements • NIRCam Wave Front Error • Proceeding with the redesigned bonded lens mount design • Review held on May 14th • Developed a new alignment plan, which allows for greater accuracy both during build up and at the module level • Meeting Cryo Cooler allocations with required margins • Baselined MIRI shield • Concept review held last week • Microshutter shock survivability • Qualification unit over tested and failed • Established new testing approach and levels • Testing currently underway at Astrium • Rebuilt ASIC cost and schedule • New ASIC’s will be ready in the November 2009 to March 2010 timeframe • MIRI FPE noise issues • Primary Mirror A1 actuator gear motor failure

  18. Meeting Refreshments • Zoe’s Lounge in lobby area will open daily @ 8:00 am – CASH and CARRY ONLY • Coffee • Tea • Juices • Fruit • Yogurt • Pastries • Etc. 18
