Mechanical Mass, Cost, & TRL • Mass (kg) • Bus Structure • Thrust tube 33 • Plates 31 • Misc. brackets, clips, etc. 79 143 total • Structure Cost (FY01$) • Per RAO accounting model $2.12 M • Historical average 18% of mission cost $34 M • TRL #6 : System/subsystem model or prototype demonstration in a relevant environment (ground or space) • Subsystem prototypes or models of the proposed bus have been successfully tested under space conditions in orbital flight, but in a bus configuration different than the proposed bus. • Bus prototypes or models will require major modifications for proposed mission. This will require flight requalification. • Proven launch vehicle to be used. SNAP Study, June 28, 2001 Goddard Space Flight Center

Mechanical Issues and Concerns • RSDO Spacecraft Bus • There are several “RSDO” buses that could accommodate this mission. However, due to the unique payload instrument interface, extensive re-design of the mechanical structure is necessary. A mission unique structure will be mandatory. At this time we feel that there will be sufficient volume to accommodate the sub-system components. The main concern being the reaction wheels and their relationship to the C.G. • Mass and Volume • No mass problem • Volume is close on the Delta III and Atlas EPF. • This volume conflict is very slight and could be resolved by a slight reduction of the MLI Shroud Assembly • Mechanical interfaces • Mission axial C.G. height within limits for launch vehicle PAF. • Mission lateral C.G. are within limits for launch vehicle PAF. • Mission stiffness for launch vehicle is TBD at this phase of the study.
