Tier 1 Mission Status
• NASA’s goal for the Tier 1 missions is to have all missions in or ready for Phase A by October 2009– Must complete Mission Concept Review
• SMAP completed Mission Concept Review in July 2008 and KDP-A (a presentation to the Science Mission Directorate Program Management Council) on September 12, 2008. SMAP is officially in Phase A.
• ICESAT II is on track to conduct MCR in February 2009.
• CLARREO and DESDyni both plan to conduct MCR in September/October 2009

Role of the Earth Systematic Missions Program Office in Decadal Survey
• All Decadal Survey Missions are directed missions and will be managed by the Earth Systematic Missions (ESM) Program office, housed at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). – This is former EOS Program Office renamed and re-envigorated for
the Decadal Survey
• Directed missions are managed by the implementing Center (LaRC for CLARREO) with oversight and assistance as needed or requested from ESM-PO
• EMS-PO develops performance standards and provides independent assessments for all Decadal Survey missions
• While housed at GSFC the ESM incorporates expertise from across NASA– In particular including science and instrument expertise from LaRC and
JPL
NASA’s Project Lifecycle
CLARREO is here
Need to be here by October 2009
Road to MCR and KDP-A: The Mission Study Process
• Conduct studies and analyses to derive the Level 1 requirements (Science, engineering, cost and schedule)
• Complete an analysis of alternatives resulting in a conceptual design, and conduct Mission Concept Review
• Prepare for approval all documents required in NPR 7120.5D (NASA Space Flight Program and Project Management Requirements)

Mission Concept Review
and Concepts
Pre-Phase A is an iterative process. Crucial to conducting a successful study is agreement on a set of realistic mission objectives and their flowdown to science and measurement requirements that are documented in the mission’s Level 1 Requirements.
Study Goals & Objectives
• Establish performance metrics, develop and document the mission science requirements (Level 1 requirements), explore the full range of implementation options, define an affordable project concept to meet requirements specified in the Level 1’s, identify needed technologies, and begin preliminary development of the Project Plan.
• Define the best mission that fits within the allocated resources and bring the mission to Phase A maturity. Mission Study Teams should explore the optimum range of cost, schedule, and capability that will maximize the science/cost ratio across the entire Decadal Survey flight program.
Study Guidelines: activities
• Investigate:– Potential Partnerships with non-NASA organizations– Instrument and mission design and development options,
including make/buy decisions and alternative mission operations approaches
• Conduct trades:– Science requirements, trying to identify the significant cost
vs. performance parameters– Mission risk (looking for cost vs. reliability drivers)– Technology– Acquisition Strategy– Mission operations approach– Data Processing and distribution approach– Access to space (launch vehicle selection; co manifest; etc)
Study Guidelines: study schedule should include these activities
• Detailed mission concept definition • Sensitivity analyses (science measurement requirements and instrument performance parameters)• Cost estimates• Risk assessments • System impacts of new technology infusion• Concept validation • Mission trade space modeling• Study reports and archived models• Level 1 requirement definition
– Temporal and spatial resolution requirements.– Measurement accuracy requirement as a function of spatial resolution.– Effect of orbit selection on mission performance.– Mission lifetime.– Other science requirements achievable by potential instrument combinations that could extend the mission applicability
to other science questions.– Measurement(s) to be made– Science rationale (How measurements contribute to science question(s))– Related measurements of complementary value– Define roles for international partners
• Define a baseline instrument concept, including the rationale and key instrument performance parameters• Identify alternative instrument concepts• Define a spacecraft concept, including key spacecraft performance parameters• Identify launch requirements• Identify Supporting R&A investments• Identify Specific cal/val requirements• Generate a detail cost estimate for instrument, Ground System, MO& DA, Science, Project Management, Systems
Engineering, and Flight Assurance. Parametric estimate for spacecraft.• Develop a detailed mission schedule (at least WBS Level 3 for instrument)

2. The preliminary set of requirements satisfactorily provides a system that will meet the mission objectives.
3. The mission is feasible. A solution has been identified that is technically feasible. A rough cost estimate is within an acceptable cost range.
4. The concept evaluation criteria to be used in candidate systems evaluation have been identified and prioritized.
5. The need for the mission has been clearly identified.6. The cost and schedule estimates are credible.7. An updated technical search was done to identify existing assets or
products that could satisfy the mission or parts of the mission.8. Technical planning is sufficient to proceed to the next phase.9. Risk and mitigation strategies have been identified and are acceptable
based on technical risk assessments.
