NASA'S HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE MONTHLY STATUS REPORT
|
||
FOR OCTOBER 1991
|
||
|
||
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) continues to operate normally
|
||
under four-gyro control, using gyros 1, 2, 3 and 5. On October 26,
|
||
Gyro #4, which has been saturated and off-line since June 30, began
|
||
displaying nominal values on both its analog and digital rate
|
||
monitor. Subsequently, on November 4, Gyro #4 again went off line.
|
||
Even though it came back on for short periods, it was never used in
|
||
the control loop. Flight operations personnel will continue to
|
||
monitor its performance. The status of Gyro #6, which failed last
|
||
December, remains unchanged.
|
||
On October 7, flight operations personnel initiated
|
||
operational procedures to transition the Tracking and Data Relay
|
||
Satellite-West (TDRS-West) support from the TDRS-C spacecraft to
|
||
the recently-deployed TDRS-E. The transition went smoothly.
|
||
On October 11, Goddard Space Flight Center formally signed a
|
||
contract with Ball Corporation, of Boulder, CO for completion of
|
||
the Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement (COSTAR).
|
||
Development at Ball is on schedule for a servicing mission in early
|
||
1994 with a Critical Design Review scheduled for December 1991 and
|
||
a planned delivery to NASA in April 1993.
|
||
The HST science program has initiated some unique cosmological
|
||
observations using remote quasars as background sources.
|
||
Scientists working with both the Goddard High Resolution
|
||
Spectrograph (GHRS) and the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS) have
|
||
reported detection of Lyman-alpha forest absorption in low, red-
|
||
shift quasars, and the FOS is obtaining data with important
|
||
implications for understanding the quasar emission process. In
|
||
addition, the GHRS--in cooperation with the International
|
||
Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) and ground-based observers--has obtained
|
||
correlative data on the flare star AU Mic. Results from these and
|
||
other observations will be presented at the upcoming American
|
||
Astronomical Society (AAS) meeting in Atlanta in January 1992.

³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³SEATTLE (NOV. 21) PR NEWSWIRE - Boeing Defense & Space Group³o³
|
||
³o³announced today it has received a contract from the U.S. ³o³
|
||
³o³Army Strategic Defense Command (SDC) to develop a hot-gas ³o³
|
||
³o³valve that can be used on miniature kinetic energy ³o³
|
||
³o³interceptors. A high-speed weapon to destroy enemy ³o³
|
||
³o³missiles, the interceptors are designed to destroy incoming ³o³
|
||
³o³missiles at high altitudes on impact, rather than by using ³o³
|
||
³o³explosives. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³The valves, which must be small, lightweight and able to ³o³
|
||
³o³withstand extremely high temperatures and chemical ³o³
|
||
³o³environments caused by rocket motor exhaust, are used to ³o³
|
||
³o³steer the interceptors by controlling attitude and ³o³
|
||
³o³maneuvering movements as they move along their high-speed ³o³
|
||
³o³paths. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³Just one element of the Miniature Kinetic Energy Interceptor³o³
|
||
³o³Integration program, the Boeing contract is valued at more ³o³
|
||
³o³than $1.6 million. Under the contract, the Group's ³o³
|
||
³o³Materials and Processes Advanced Materials organization will³o³
|
||
³o³develop and demonstrate a low- cost, high-rate production ³o³
|
||
³o³method for manufacturing miniature hot gas valves. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³The 33-month program will consist of four phases: valve ³o³
|
||
³o³design evaluation and selection, fabrication process ³o³
|
||
³o³development, flight- weight valve fabrication and testing, ³o³
|
||
³o³and documenting the research effort. ³o³

³o³ ³o³
|

³o³A new ''inertial measurement unit'' was ³o³
|

³o³installed Wednesday, but engineers were unable to duplicate ³o³
|
||
³o³the original failure. And that raised the prospect of ³o³
|

³o³another delay because of lingering concern about the ³o³
|

³o³possibility of a subtle problem that could affect the ³o³
|

³o³replacement unit. ³o³
|

³o³ ³o³
|

³o³But late Saturday, Air Force Maj. Bob Thunker, a launch ³o³
|

³o³mission managers that the problem would not recur, despite ³o³
|

³o³an inability to duplicate the glitch. ³o³
|

³o³ ³o³
|

³o³''We're comfortable with the unit that was taken out,'' he ³o³
|

³o³said. ''The failure investigation will continue on to ³o³

³o³pinpoint the exact cause of the problem. But we understand ³o³

³o³EXPERIMENT ³o³
|

³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³CAPE CANAVERAL, FL (NOV. 25) UPI - The Atlantis astronauts ³o³
|
||
³o³successfully launched a $300 million Air Force early ³o³
|
||
³o³warning satellite Monday before turning to on-board ³o³
|
||
³o³research, including a hush-hush military space surveillance ³o³
|
||
³o³experiment. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³The primary goal of the marathon 10-day flight was ³o³
|
||
³o³accomplished at 1:03 a.m. EST Monday with the successful ³o³
|
||
³o³deployment of the Defense Support Program - DSP - satellite ³o³
|
||
³o³from Atlantis's cargo bay. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³Both stages of the satellite's $50 million ''inertial upper ³o³
|

³o³stage'' booster then fired, at 2:03 a.m. and 7:18 a.m., to ³o³
|

³o³propel the 2.5-ton spacecraft from the shuttle's ³o³
|
||
³o³224-mile-high orbit to its operational altitude of 22,300 ³o³
|
||
³o³miles above the equator. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³Atlantis's launch Sunday was delayed five days because of ³o³
|
||
³o³problems with the rocket's navigation system. But the ³o³
|
||
³o³Boeing-built IUS booster performed flawlessly Monday and ³o³
|
||
³o³Air Force mission managers were elated with the results. ³o³
|
||
³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³''The spacecraft was successfully deployed on schedule and ³o³
|
||
³o³the IUS has boosted the payload to the proper orbit,'' said ³o³
|
||
³o³Maj. James Steele, director of payload operations at Air ³o³
|
||
³o³Force Space Systems Division. ''We're very pleased with the ³o³
|
||
³o³performance of the DSP and the IUS.'' ³o³

|

continued -
|
||
|
||
Once checked out and in operation, the DSP satellite will
|
||
join a globe-spanning network of such early warning
|
||
sentinels equipped with infrared telescopes capable of
|
||
detecting enemy missile launches or nuclear explosions.
|
||
|
||
With the primary goal of the 44th shuttle mission behind
|
||
them, the Atlantis astronauts plan to devote the rest of
|
||
the year's sixth and final shuttle flight to carrying out a
|
||
battery of on-board civilian and military research
|
||
projects.
|
||
|
||
Commander Frederick Gregory, 50, co-pilot Terence Henricks,
|
||
39, Story Musgrave
|
||
56, Mario Runco, 39, James Voss, 42, and Army guest
|
||
astronaut Thomas Hennen, 39, began their first full day in
|
||
orbit Monday at 1:44 p. m. with a wakeup call from the
|
||
commander of the starship Enterprise on the television show
|
||
''Star Trek: The Next Generation.''
|
||
|
||
''Space. The final frontier,'' intoned actor Patrick
|
||
Stewart in a recorded message. ''This is the voyage of the
|
||
space shuttle Atlantis. It's 10-day mission: to explore new
|
||
methods of remote sensing and observation of planet Earth;
|
||
to seek out new data on radiation in space and a new
|
||
understanding of the effects of microgravity on the human
|
||
body.''
|
||
|
||
Gregory responded: ''Good morning Enterprise!''
|
||
|
||
Among the tasks facing the astronauts Monday was work with
|
||
a medical experiment to learn more about how to counteract
|
||
the effects of weightlessness for space fliers returning to
|
||
Earth's gravity.
|
||
|
||
Atlantis's flight originally was planned to last just four
|
||
days, but the mission was extended to gather more data with
|
||
the Lower Body Negative Pressure experiment.
|
||
|
||
The LBNP apparatus is a large sleeping bag-like contraption
|
||
that an astronaut climbs into and seals off at the waist.
|
||
By lowering the bag's internal air pressure, blood can be
|
||
forced back into the lower body just like it is on Earth
|
||
when someone stands up.
|
||
|
||
Earlier flight tests indicate LBNP could help astronauts
|
||
eliminate the dizziness that often accompanies the return
|
||
to Earth's gravity. The Atlantis astronauts plan to take
|
||
turns using the device throughout the mission.
|
||
|
||
Hennen, one of the nation's leading experts on image
|
||
analysis, planned to begin work Monday with an space
|
||
surveillance experiment called Terra Scout. Using a video
|
||
camera with special lenses, Hennen plans to observe a
|
||
variety of ground targets as the shuttle sails overhead.
|
||
|
||
His first target: Ford Island in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
|
||
|
||
''What we're trying to do is document the manner in which a
|
||
human observes and more specifically, analyzes seen data,''
|
||
said Hennen, selected for the mission from a pool of 700
|
||
military image analysts. ''What we want to do is translate
|
||
that data into computer-assisted sensing systems. What we
|
||
want to do is make smart sensors.
|
||
|
||
''We have systems (now) that we know exactly what they can
|
||
and cannot see on the Earth. But those systems are
|
||
commanded by humans. What we're trying to do is incorporate
|
||
the human imagery analysis skill into a sensing device to
|
||
make it autonomous.''
|
||
|
||
Starting Tuesday, Runco, a former New Jersey Highway Patrol
|
||
officer, will begin work with a second military
|
||
surveillance experiment called M88-1.
|
||
|
||
Unlike Terra Scout, M88-1 is designed to help military
|
||
analysts better understand what the human eye can see from
|
||
space and how astronauts might be of service in a time of
|
||
national crisis.
|
||
|
||
Atlantis is scheduled to glide to a landing Dec. 4 at the
|
||
Kennedy Space Center to close out the 19th post-Challenger
|
||
shuttle flight.

³o³ ³o³
|
||
³o³Runco later began work with a second space surveillance ³o³

³o³ ³o³
|

³o³The rest of the flight is being devoted to a battery of ³o³
|
||
³o³on-board experiments, including two Pentagon space ³o³
|
||
³o³surveillance projects: Terra Scout, an Army experiment, and ³o³
|
||
³o³M88-1, a multi-service experiment to find out whether ³o³
