Main Phase B 1 Preparation Activities Phase B 1 Planning • Detail roadmap until KO Phase B 1 and beyond Synchronization of all partner activities • Major Milestones for the Phase B 1 Date Event 15. -16. July 2014 Phase B 1 Kick-Off March 2015 PLATO Design Consolidation Review (PDCR) October 2015 PLATO B 1 data package delivery for SRR November - December 2015 PLATO System Requirements Review (SRR) March 2016 Mission Adoption & IPC approval April 2016 Kick-off Phase B 2/C/D January 2024 PLATO Launch

Main Phase B 1 Preparation Activities Preparation B 1 Kick-Off Data Package Establish an updated Specification Tree to define the interrelation between the single PLATO P/L component specifications Basis for the traceability of single requirements and interface management Definition of all required documents for the B 1 Kick-Off Comparison with existing documentation to identify necessary inputs Completion / annotation of existing specifications Utilization as applicable documents for the B 1 work upon PDCR

Phase B 1 • 1 st P/L Meeting has been on 06. /07. 05. 2014 – Bring P/L consortium together – Start to resume P/L teams • Phase B 1 KO is scheduled for 16. /17. 07. 2014 – Official Start of Phase B 1 – All work packages are already defined – Tasks to be done between KO and 2 nd P/L Consortium Meeting will be defined • 2 nd P/L Meeting proposed Fall 2014 – All specifications and belonging annotations/supplements are available as basis for the B 1 development work

PLATO Phase B 1 Schedule

Communication between TOU team and KT List of all deliverables to be defined and finalised by 2 nd P/L Meeting PMs to be held at TOU site or by Webex. Required documents and Progress Reports including status of AIs to be delivered at least five working days before the meeting Regular bi-weekly telecons between TOU lead team and KT: brief discussion of working progress, identified problems, needed inputs etc the traceability of single requirements and interface management Meeting when necessary with other Camera/Payload/PLATO teams by Webex (organised by KT). For critical topics, like I/F discussions, face to face meeting are preferable

Payload Camera Subsystem Status Summary: Goals Phase B 1 • Goals Phase B 1: To achieve a sufficient level of technical maturity to ensure a uccessful SRR. • • • system requirements for the selected architectures • • • successfully validated system requirements derived • • confidence on the eadiness levels of various technologies. • consolidating the requirements on system and subsystem level nd their traceability consolidating internal interfaces, assessing requirements for external interfaces consolidating performance models consolidating and defining operational modes of the payload and its arious subsystems and components. validating the set f system and subsystem requirements Establish a verification strategy consistent with programmatic limitations and equired scientific value. Develop technology maturation programs in order to achieve the required TRL levels at RR

Telescope Optical Unit (TOU) Status Summary: • Team? Several Institutions (INAF, Univ. Bern, Stockolm Obs. , Univ. Firenze) + Industrial Partners (Selex , Medialario-Sagem, Seso, RUAG, APCO Technologies) led by INAF (Interface to Camera team) • Current Status? – Optical Design + options available – Breadboard/Prototypes: TOU AIV procedure already performed (TOU Optical and Thermal Performance) – Further Breadboard with AIV and thermal behavior identified AIV procedures under development with serial production in mind • Next Steps? – Answer MEMO questions
