Mars Observer and Mars Global Surveyor Operations Plans Collection, 1985-1998.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/733102112

The collection includes 16 boxes. The documents in this collection cover the Mars Observer and Mars Global Surveyor Projects from 1985-1998. Boxes 1 through 7 are Mars Observer Project materials generated by Glenn Cunningham. The documents consist of project level review packages, periodic status reports; NASA quarterly review presentations packages, and program operating plan-various versions. (Boxes 1 through 3). Boxes 4 through 7 contain volume I NASA failure reports, spacecraft technical proposal (RCA), project plans and spacecraft performance specifications. Boxes 8 through 16 are Mars Global Surveyor material generated by Glenn Cunningham. The documents consist of MGS solar array anomaly flight logs, October 1997 to November 1997, "Face on Mars" issues, and background content, and "Face on Mars" correspondence with the public; (Boxes 8 through 10). Boxes 11 through 13 contain Mars Global Surveyor Operations Project documents. These documents consist of phase B study, MGS gyro 2 anomaly, management approach study, solar array yoke failure files, aerobraking readiness review, design and margin files. Boxes 14 through 16 contain Mars Global Surveyor managers documents that consists of project/program authorization documents, review planning and actions items for various project level reviews, Mars Surveyor Operations Project (MSOP) Core capabilities review, establishment of the MGS operations projects files, reengineering of the MGS Mission Operation System (MOS) files, MGS risk assessment files and the MGS fixed high gain antenna (HGA) study files.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is a research and development center and NASA field center in Pasadena, California. The JPL is owned by NASA and managed by the nearby California Institute of Technology. The laboratory's primary function is the construction and operation of planetary robotic spacecraft, though it also conducts Earth-orbit and astronomy missions. It is also responsible for operating NASA's Deep Space Network. Among the laboratory's major active projects are the Mars Scien...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was established as an independent agency of the executive branch on October 1, 1958 by the National Aeronautics and Space Act (72 Stat. 426), approved July 29, 1958. It superseded the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). NASA conducted redsearch on problems of flight, developed aeronautical and space vehicles, explored outer space, and participated in international programs for the peaceful development of space technology....

In 1980, the NASA Advisory Council formed the Solar System Exploration Committee (SSEC) to formulate a long-range program for planetary exploration. This program would build on the scientific strategies developed by the Committee on Lunar and Planetary Exploration of the National Academy of Science's Space Science Board, and would also recognize the fiscal constraints likely to apply to NASA's science program in the foreseeable future. As a result of extensive investigat...
