SHUTTLE MISSION OVERVIEW 2 HOUR MISSION OBJECTIVES DOCK

SHUTTLE MISSION OVERVIEW 2 HOUR MISSION OBJECTIVES: • DOCK WITH INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION • COMPLETE 2 SUCCESSFUL EVA’S • RETURN CREW SAFELY TO EARTH

MISSION CONTROL

POSITIONS: • Flight Director- In charge of the whole crew, has the responsibility of the whole crew and safety. – If a plan has to be made for any reason, Emergency, Experiment, mechanical problems or health problems, this person makes that decision. – We need someone who is not afraid to be in charge of others and can distribute tasks among their peers. • CAPCOM- Sole communicator with the Flight Crew. – Capcom finds out what problems are occurring on the Orbiter and relays this information to Prop. – Historically the Capcom position is filled by a previous astronaut. If you have been to Space Camp before this is a perfect position for you.

• GNC- Monitors vehicle navigation and guidance, and ensures launch/landing sites have nominal weather conditions. – This position relays weather checks for designated runways. • EECOM- Monitors all environmental systems of the Orbiter including pressure and temperature. – Responsible for Li. OH consumption – Emergency, Environmental, and Consumables Operations Manager.

• FDO-The Flight Dynamics Officer. – They are in charge of all engines, fuel levels, OMS burns, and RCS maneuvers. – Throughout the mission, they will be highly involved whether it is relaying burn time information, monitoring the orbiter’s position, or helping solve the problems at hand. • PAYCOM- Sole communicator with the International Space Station. – They will serve as liaison between the mission control team and the crew of the ISS. – The Mission Scientist will relay all important re-boost information, receive updates on the crew’s experiment progress, as well as solve and relay all information if there is a problem.

ORBITER POSITIONS: • Mission Specialists – Assist in daily operations – Responsible for conducting all EVA’s and emergency exterior inspection and repairs • Payload Specialists – Carry out experiments in middeck – Responsible for all middeck operations and physicals for Mission Specialists

INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION

INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION • Maintain daily operations for station integrity • Perform atmospheric specific experiments EXPR – 6 IRON EXCTRACTION Separate a single chemical from a pre-formed compound H 2 O Morter/pestle, magnetic stirrer, scale, 500 ml beaker

ISS POSITIONS: • Station Commander – Has responsibility for maintaining all daily and ongoing operations while on board. – Assists Station Scientist with experiments – Insures ISS stays in correct orbit for the duration of the mission • Station Scientist – Conducts all assigned experiments with the help of the Station Commander – Carries out all daily checklists and duties

ISS POSITIONS: • Station Specialists – Work as a team to conduct all assigned experiments – Will perform an EVA to continue the work started by the Mission Specialists

POSITION MATERIALS • All mission operations are carried out using a specific timeline – MOCR- will use a profile to indicate timeline for operations and monitoring – Orbiter and Station- will use a checklist to provide all assigned operational procedures

LUNAR MISSION OVERVIEW 2 HOUR MISSION OBJECTIVES: • Recover and re-establish Aurora • Continue ongoing research in Rising Star and perform a successful crew exchange. • Perform successful open lunar excursions (OLE)

LUNAR MISSION OVERVIEW It is now 2052 • Lunar habitation and research have been established for more than 7 years now inside of Shackleton Crater on the south pole of the moon. • BASES OF OPERATION – SOCR: Shackleton Operations Control Room oversees all Lunar operations. – REMOTE BASES: Rising Star and Aurora

SOCR

POSITIONS: • Base Commander- Monitor all lunar operations and oversee AURORA recovery. – Base Commander is in charge of the entire lunar crew and will have to solve anomalies. • OLE Officer 1 -Oversee RISING STAR daily operations and exterior communciation on AURORA recovery. • OLE Officer 2 - Leads RISING STAR open lunar excursions (OLEs) and have interior communication on AURORA recovery.

• Flight Director- monitor all capsule operations and ensure successful crew transfer and Earth return • Prop- oversee all engine and burn trajectory operations and serve as lead in all Lander operations. • Capcom- monitor crew operations and maintain safety while in transit. – Sole Communicator with capsule crew. – Historically Capcom is a former astronaut, therefore if you have been to Space Camp before this will be a good fit.

Orion: The Capsule

CAPSULE POSITIONS: • Commander – Responsible for maintaining execution of all onboard operations and procedures – Responsible for navigational control to and from moon. • Pilot – Assists Commander in all procedures and daily operations – Second in command for capsule operations
