  10. Science Orbit Scenarios From Design Reference Mission (MAVEN-SC-PLAN-0005) No STATIC Sun-Nadir

  11. Science Phase Timeline

  12. Impact of Orbit Scenarios on PFP • STATIC • Periapsis: Significant improvement since PDR (ram-nadir and ram-horizontal observations, APP scan every other orbit) • Mid-altitudes: Time sharing with IUVS, minimize use of scenarios 4 and 5 (CCR in system to reduce these from 14 weeks to ~2 weeks) • Apoapsis: Ride-along during IUVS disk mapping (same as PDR) • SWEA • Periapsis: high energy resolution not available in Fly-Y mode (~50% of orbits)  still meets Level 3 requirements • No issues at higher altitudes. • SWIA, SEP, MAG, LPW/EUV • No issues.

  15. PF Instrument Operations

  16. Ground Data System

  17. PF Commanding The SOC generates routine command scripts to run the PF instruments based on parameterized inputs from the PF team orbit phased mode changes altitude based rules eclipse based rules spacecraft orientation based rules instrument safing commands high voltage off during deep dips close SEP attenuator when Sun in FOV close EUV shutter when viewing the RAM direction at periapsis The PF team generates non-interactive commands and sends to the SOC for upload Regular commands to select Archive data for downlink Occasional parameter change commands to adjust the instruments

  18. PF Archive Data • PF instruments (except LPW) send uncompressed data to the PFDPU • Compression in PFDPU reduces this volume by factor of ~2 • Standard data products  Survey Data • High resolution data products  Archive Data • Archive data • Stored in 8 GB flash memory within PFDPU • At ~30 kbps, memory can hold 2-3 weeks of Archive Data • About 10% of Archive data can be sent down in telemetry • Downlinks occur twice per week • Survey data (Quicklook) are reviewed after each downlink • Time ranges of interest are selected • Commands are generated to instruct PFDPU to place selected Archive data into telemetry at next available downlink • Commands sent to SOC for upload
