  1. Asteroid Initiative Idea Synthesis Asteroid Crewed SystemsSteve Stich – Deputy Director, JSC Engineering Mark McDonald- Concept Analysis Team Lead Join the discussion and send questions to: #AsteroidCrew

  2. Asteroid Redirect Crewed Mission Overview Attached Orion to robotic spacecraft Deliver crew on SLS/Orion Perform extra-vehicular activity (EVA) to retrieve asteroid samples Return crew safely with asteroid samples in Orion NASA Asteroid Initiative Idea Synthesis • #AsteroidCrew

  3. Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Details • Orion-based EVA with two Crewmembers • Two EVAs + One Contingency • Short Duration (~4 hours) in Simple Lightweight Suit NASA Asteroid Initiative Idea Synthesis • #AsteroidCrew

  4. Suit and EVA Mission Kits Four kits were identified to enable Orion Capsule-Based EVA capability EVA Servicing and Recharge EVA Communications Cabin Repress Kit EVA Tools, Translation Aids & Sample Container Equipment necessary for multiple EVAs including recharge for PLSS water and oxygen, crew equipment, etc. Standard and specialized tools to complete mission objectives Repackaged Primary Life Support System radio that allows communication between EVA crew and ground • Provides enriched air for multiple repressurizations of the cabin without using Orion resources Utilizes common radio currently being developed by Advanced Exploration Systems Leverage current ISS and Apollo experience. Based on ISS and Shuttle equipment Based on ISS Nitrogen/Oxygen Recharge Concept

  5. Asteroid Redirect Mission builds upon Orion/SLS to enable Global Exploration Roadmap 5 Extended Duration in Cis Lunar Space Lunar Deep Space • Follow along and/or chat on Workshop web page: www.nasa.gov/asteroidworkshop • Chat using hashtag #AsteroidCrew NASA Asteroid Initiative Idea Synthesis • #AsteroidCrew

  6. RFI Selection Process • Our panel of experts carefully reviewed 22 RFI’s in the area of Crew Systems and Extensibility. • Proposals were selected based on: • Merit for the mission; • Extensibility towards next missions (Lunar, Deep Space, and towards Mars) • Design maturity; • Applicability towards mission guidelines • Consolidated into 13 presentation/discussions representing a industry, NASA, international, and academia.
