  1. THEMIS TIME HISTORY OF EVENTS AND MACROSCALE INTERACTIONS DURING SUBSTORMS RESOLVING THE MYSTERY OF WHERE, WHEN AND HOW AURORAL ERUPTIONS START THEMIS MCDR June 14-18, 2004 University of California, Berkeley

  2. SPACE SCIENCES LABORATORY • Background • Initiated in 1958 by Drs.

  7. RAMATY HIGH ENERGY SOLARSPECTROSCOPIC IMAGER • Project Management • Spacecraft Bus • Science Package • Imager • Spectrometer • Electronics • Mission Operations • Science Operations • Ground Data Systems • Launched February 5, 2002 • Mission Operations Planned for 2 years

  8. Successful Launch of EO-1 First major contracts with LaRC DeliveredISS Radiator Engineer Designer / Other Professionals Delivered FUSE OTA Support / Clerical Technician Awarded SMEX-Lite Commercialization First major STS Payload Contract First direct contract with JPL Delivered first Flight HW Doing Business As Acquired Thermal and Structural Products Divisions Labor Mix 4% 14% 61% 21% NRL Instrument Development(LASCO / SSULI) First direct contracts with GSFC & NRL SAI Founded 1978 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2001 THEMIS is an Essential Component to Swales Corporate Growth • THEMIS is Central to Swales Strategic Plan • Swales has committed significant internal resources over the last 4 years to mature the THEMIS Mission design thereby enhancing the science return • Swales has the Human & Financial strengthto drive THEMIS to a success • THEMIS Management has high visibility with weekly direct- reporting to CEO/COO • We love doing this type of work!

  9. Venue Description LAWRENCE HALL OF SCIENCELawrence Hall of Science is on Centennial Drive in the Berkeley hills east of the main UC Berkeley campus. It is just above the UC Botanical Gardens; and just below the Space Sciences Lab. Phone: 510-642-5132 LHS ParkingVisitor parking rates are:50¢ for 1/2 hour$2 for 2 hours$3 for 4 hours$5 for all day. The machines accept $1and $5 bills, and change. SSL (splinters & after 5:30pm) LHS (Main venue 8:00am-5:30pm)

  10. SSL Splinter Rooms Splinter 1 Room • 3 Splinter rooms at Space Sciences Lab • Room selection based upon size of group • Other issues, see:Vassilis Angelopoulos orPeter Harvey Silver Addition Splinter 2 room Samuel Silver Space Sciences Laboratory Splinter 3 room

  11. THEMIS Status • Selected for Phase A: April 17, 2002 • Selected for Phase B: March 20, 2003 • PDR – peer: Oct 8/9/15/16, 2003, Mission PDR: Nov 13-14, 2003 • Confirmation Readiness Review – [Original: Dec’03] GSFC, Feb 4, 2004 • Confirmation Review – [Orig. Dec’03] Attempt: HQ, Mar 4, 2004 (Aborted) • Confirmation: April 22, 2004 • GSFC direction to further reduce I&T schedule risk • Developed better I&T flow, validated by GSFC Engineering • Developed 2 month slack in I&T flow, pushing launch to 10/2006 (slot=10/19/2006) • Added P1 end magnetics EMC/EMI verification and calibration test • Added pressurant tank: increased mission deltaV to help: • mass posture (refocus bus on instrument hosting); • bus development schedule; • a compressed ascend and commissioning scenario • Lost dawn sector conjunctions; but kept ascend schedule contingency • Design work kept-on (Instr. and BAU ETU production & testing) • Test plans being detailed; test GSE/software/adl.TV tanks being built • Instrument ETU vibration and electrical tests have mostly occurred • T/V tests ongoing; ETU I&T= July 2004.

THEMIS CDR peer reviews • FGM/SCM (Berlin/Paris): Apr 6/8, 2004 • ESA/SST/EFI/IDPU (UCB): Apr 19/20, 2004 • GBO (U of Calgary): Apr 26/27, 2004 • Bus Systems (SAI): Apr 28am, 2004 • Bus Thermal (SAI): Apr 28pm, 2004 • Bus Electrical & C&DH (SAI): Apr 29am, 2004 • FSW (SAI): Apr 29pm, 2004 • Bus Mechanical (SAI): May 3, 2004 • Separation System (SAI): May 4, 2004 • Probe power (SAI): May 5, 2004 • Probe communications (SAI): May 6, 2004 • I&T Plan and EGSE (SAI): May 7, 2004 • RCS (Aerojet, Redmond, WA): May 10, 2004 • Probe GN&C and ACS (SAI): May 12, 2004 • Flight Dynamics and Mission Operations (SAI): Jun 1/ 2, 2004 • Program schedule (GSFC): Jun 10, 2004 • Consolidated Bus and Mission CDR (Efficiency, Reduces Overlap and Travel)

  13. THEMIS MCDR main goals • Ensure design (still) meets mission requirements including changes since PDR • Ensure design meets safety requirements • Ensure main PDR issues have been addressed satisfactorily • Demonstrate design is ready for production • Process to be an asset to the UCB Program Manager (a fresh technical look) and to GSFC Mission Manager (compliance to processes and requirements) • Request to review board: • Be sparing in your RFAs • Identify criticality and distinguish from recommendations • Identify need dates and work them with PM to ensure workable schedule • Resolve issues to your satisfaction if possible rather than writing it up: • Discussion (here and now) and/or • Arranging splinters (breaks or SSL rooms)
