JSC prepares RFP for station crew-rescue vehicle. It will set only the high-level requirements, leaving bidders to pin down detailed specs; this is most unusual for NASA. [Well, I guess now and then NASA's inability to make up its mind can be useful after all...] National Space Council expects to finish updated version of the national space policy by July 20. Quayle says Bush Administration will emphasize execution of the policy, not more changes. "Space policy has not been implemented for a long time." Long-term support for the Aerospace Plane is one of the major issues to be decided. Growing Soviet and West German interest in spaceplanes is likely to be a factor in the Bush policy on the Aerospace Plane. The USSR seems to be heavily into hypersonic research, and Germany recently approved $200M in initial funding for its Sanger project. There is disagreement about how soon these nations, and Japan, will be competitive. USAF awards Lockheed $28M contract to build an on-board threat-warning system to alert satellite controllers to attacks by antisatellite weapons. First flight of Ariane 44L, the heaviest Ariane 4 configuration, slips to June 5 due to minor technical problems. AW&ST reverses itself: the Titan 34D launch May 10 was a snoopsat, not a pair of military comsats. The comsats were originally going to be first, but the snoopsat hardware was ready early. Picture of Buran atop Mriya in flight, as it will appear at Paris. Soviet aerospace industry is awaiting a government decision on how many more orbiters will be funded for the Soviet shuttle; it will be one or two in addition to the two now in existence. Buran was generally in pretty good shape after its orbital flight, despite some tile problems. The assessment is not yet entirely complete, as plans to partially disassemble Buran for wing-interior inspections had to be postponed slightly when the decision was made to take it to the Paris Airshow. There is known to have been minor damage as a result of a hot-gas leak between the carbon wing leading edge and the tiles aft of it on the underside; the Soviets say the problem is understood. Soviets say that Buran was originally going to have a pair of jet engines in pods beside the fin, with tiled exteriors and covers over the intakes against reentry heating. They would not have been enough to permit stable horizontal flight or a go-around after an aborted landing attempt, but they would have given greater maneuverability on the final approach. Approach and landing tests led to the conclusion that they were not useful enough to be worth the trouble. The tests were run with a non-space-ready orbiter carrying a second pair of engine pods on the sides, which added enough thrust for takeoff and cruise. Drawings of a small-spaceplane proposal using a Mriya as an airborne launch platform. Picture of a stripped Buran orbiter (no tail fin, in particular) atop an M-4 "Bison" bomber. [Pretty clear why they want to use Mriya instead; *this* configuration looks incredibly top-heavy, as the orbiter fuselage is about twice the diameter of the M-4's.] Soviets offer Buran's tile-based thermal-protection technology for foreign spacecraft, including full design, production, and installation services. Interior and exterior color pictures of the Soviet shuttle and test articles for it. Ball Aerospace develops toroidal LOX tank, meant to wrap around an oxyhydrogen engine to give more room for hydrogen tankage in an upper stage constrained by length limits. The USAF doesn't seem to have abandoned the idea of hydrogen upper stages for the shuttle as thoroughly as NASA has. Also of note is that the LOX tank is designed to be cooled by hydrogen boiloff, with an objective of a 30-day hold time in orbit. -- $10 million equals 18 PM | Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology (Pentagon-Minutes). -Tom Neff | uunet!attcan!utzoo!henry henry@zoo.toronto.edu ------------------------------ Date: 18 Jul 89 03:09:14 GMT From: mailrus!jarvis.csri.toronto.edu!utgpu!utzoo!henry@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu (Henry Spencer) Subject: space news from June 12 AW&ST This is the big Paris-air-show preview issue. The front cover is a two-page foldout of Buran arriving at Le Bourget on top of Mriya. This was the 15th flight of Buran on Mriya, the Soviets say. The orbiter is attached with tubular supports fore and aft; interestingly enough, it is *not* attached to the two large payload supports on top of Mriya's wing center section. Japanese construction company proposes using an underground silo as a compressed-air gas gun for space launches. The silo would be 2km deep and 10m dia, with the vehicle leaving the muzzle at Mach 1. The Hazama-Gumi Construction Co. says this would lead to major savings in fuel and increases in payload, at a capital cost of about $3.3G. DoT study says US commercial launch suppliers would benefit from a serious effort to improve procedures for private use of government facilities. Foreign suppliers can commit to launch dates three years in advance, but the USAF won't promise availability of US launch facilities more than a year ahead. Various other policies can cost commercial users quite a bit when delays occur. The study does say that commercial fears of being actually bumped from the schedule by government payloads are exaggerated. Recent events in China leave uncertain the fate of efforts that had been underway to reorganize Chinese aerospace activity for better export potential. The Chinese did have booster models at Le Bourget, and are talking about development of two more booster versions, but nobody knows what the policy situation will be. Aerospace planes are big at Le Bourget: large models of NASP (US), Sanger (West Germany), Hope (Japan), and Hotol (UK) all in evidence. OSC/Hercules to sign deal with Ball Aerospace to launch miniature comsats into Clarke orbit on Pegasus. [This will presumably mean a small upper stage or two, since Pegasus is built for low orbit.] Ball is developing a new small comsat design, 400-1000 lbs, specifically for Pegasus launch, and has an agreement with OSC/H. giving it exclusive rights to Clarke- orbit launches from Pegasus for 1990-91. Indonesia and Thailand are reported to be potential early customers, and some European countries are also interested. The Ball satellites would carry only a few transponders, and would be most useful for specialized tasks like filling in for failing satellites or providing communications to relatively small customers. Pegasus managers say the cost of Clarke-orbit missions might be reduced to about $20M this way, as opposed to $100M for current systems, opening up a wide range of possibilities for low-cost use of high orbits. Pegasus is still on track for first launch in August. Space-agency managers from a number of countries meet at Le Bourget to begin coordination of planning for space rescue systems and manned- spacecraft compatibility in areas like docking systems and operating pressures. Soviets study development of a large comsat for both internal use and commercial export markets. Soviets expected to begin marketing satellite radar imaging data with a resolution of 25m in addition to existing remote-sensing services. Israeli government approves covering most of the operating costs of the proposed Amos comsat, assuming Israel Aircraft Industries (the sponsor of the concept) can find commercial funding for construction and launch. The first Ariane 44L (the maximum-boost configuration of the Ariane 4) launches German and Japanese comsats June 5, after repeated schedule slips due to minor technical problems. Pictures of work underway at Kourou on the Ariane 5 production and launch facilities. They will include an SRB test stand that permits firing the Ariane 5 SRBs in a vertical orientation in the same climatic conditions as real launches, and a solid-fuel casting facility for making the booster segments. Story on Ball Aerospace's large-array image-intensifying sensors, one of which will be the sensor on the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (first of the second-generation instruments that will eventually replace the current ones on the Hubble telescope). They also have potential military applications, since they can see everything from visible light to soft X-rays, are very sensitive, and are highly radiation-resistant. The technology is loosely based on current military image-intensifier technology. Rockwell International says that cutting production costs for ALS engines appears best done through simple designs, new production processes, and less use of exotic materials. The efficiency of the manufacturing process is more important than ultimate maximum engine performance, Rockwell says. Rockwell's Rocketdyne division is studying an oxyhydrogen engine with somewhat more thrust than the SSME but lower pressures and temperatures and reduced reusability requirements. The reduced demands can greatly reduce the complexity of the engine; for example, the pumps total about 600 parts, versus 2300 on the SSME. Letter from Jonathan McDowell at the Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass, pointing out that the new orbiter's name is "Endeavour", not the USized spelling "Endeavor" that AW&ST erroneously used. "The NASA press release consistently uses the spelling `Endeavour' and makes it clear that the new shuttle is named after Capt. James Cook's British ship of that name... Proper nouns do not change their spelling upon crossing the Atlantic." -- $10 million equals 18 PM | Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology (Pentagon-Minutes). -Tom Neff | uunet!attcan!utzoo!henry henry@zoo.toronto.edu ------------------------------ Date: 8 Jul 89 20:40:21 GMT From: helios.ee.lbl.gov!ncis.tis.llnl.gov!blackbird!tkelso@ucsd.edu (TS Kelso) Subject: NASA Prediction Bulletins The most current orbital elements from the NASA Prediction Bulletins are carried on the Celestial RCP/M, (513) 427-0674, and are updated several times weekly.
