- Description
- NASA/ARC intends to award a sole-source purchase order to EOS Creative TechnologySolutions for space debris tracking with centimeter level accuracy. The award will bemade to EOS's Arizona facility and will coordinate with their Mt. Stromlo facility toutilize the telescope for space debris tracking. The tasks to be performed by EOS are as follows:1) The contractor shall acquire and track one or more HAMR debris objects and do absoluteorbit determination (using a >20cm beam director for a duration >1 minute). 2) The contractor shall illuminate with a laser of average power >100W one or moredebris objects on the second half of the pass on each of >2 passes within a 48 hourperiod.3) The contractor should illuminate a satellite with a RR during one pass and measure theintensity of returned signal as a function of time and try to reacquire outsideterminator.4) NASA will provide a list of 20 target HAMR debris objects to the contractor.5) The contractor shall attend a kickoff meeting, a meeting at the end of the project aswell as attending weekly meetings.The deliverables required of EOS are as follows:1) Raw tracking data (elevation and RA angles, tracking times) from tracking tests oftargeted HAMR debris objects2) Calculated relative position determination with respect to Mt. Stromlo observatory(elevation, RA angles and range each second during each pass of each object) for targetedHAMR debris objects3) Absolute orbit determination results (Keplerian element sets each second during thepasses for each pass for each tracked object) for targeted HAMR debris objects.4) Detector return signal power (calibrated absolute power, measurements every 1s) forsatellite laser ranging from a satellite with a RR during passes. The period of performance is expected to last for 6 months after the date of award. For any questions please contact the contracting office: Marla Lefevre 650-604-5775 /marla.p.lefevre@nasa.gov
