Mini-SAR Experiment Objectives
Map the deposits of both poles of the Moon (> 80° lat.) at optimum viewing angles (~40°) to characterize permanently dark areas and definitively determine their RF backscattering properties using both SAR and scatterometry
Complete the global map of the Moon by mapping dark regions in lunar polar areas
Characterize the physical nature of the polar regolith and surface
SAR mapping of other targets of opportunity as possible

Circular Polarization Ratio (CPR)
Ratio of received power in both right and left senses
Normal rocky planet surfaces = polarization inversion (receive opposite sense from that transmitted)
“Same sense” received indicates something unusual:
double- or even-multiple-bounce reflections
Volume scattering from RF-transparent material
High CPR (enhanced “same sense” reception) is common for fresh, rough (at wavelength scale) targets and water ice

Summary
Mini-SAR successfully mapped about 90% of both polar areas; due to some operational issues, coverage is not contiguous
Calibration data from Earth and Moon have been acquired and partly processed; used to quantify radar response
Non-polar areas analyzed; results consistent with previous S-band radar mapping from Earth
Areas of high CPR have been identified:Some high CPR is clearly associated with surface roughness
(e.g., Main L ejecta blanket)Some deposits (e.g., near north pole on floor of Peary) show
high CPR and are restricted to the interior of craters; these features are in permanent darkness.

Some Lessons Learned
Sensitivities about ITARUS must recognize that foreign institutions may view
ITAR restrictions negatively
Foreign governments must realize that wording is not chosen by the flight partners
ITAR issues did not materially interfere with MSR build, test, and operation
ITAR compliance is simply an overhead lien that must be paid
![Page 34: Inter approach to_spaceprogmgmt](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042713/54992482b479591c488b4798/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Some Lessons Learned
Interactions with the pressOther governments may have different relationships
with press
Keep quiet and let your lead partner set the tone
“No comment” is a comment; it will not deter a determined reporter

Quality Audit
Quality Assurance
Key processes and continuous Quality control during development and realisation of all launch vehicle subsytems are identified and carried out.
The Strict Quality Assurance is ensured by meticulously following the various steps given below. Approved specifications & design Qualified materials, Process reviews Inspection/Surveillance during production Stage clearances 3 tier non conformance management Batch testing for VOQ, Acceptance testing
The Quality Audit is given utmost importance Using appropriate equipments
Reference Standards
Monitoring of key characteristics
Maintenance of records & traceability

Change Management
Control of intersystem interfaces has been the majorresponsibility of the project team.
The evolution and changes in the design are continuouslymonitored and the impacts assessed.
Traceability of changes, decisions and inputs are utilised toassess the impacts of a new change.
Design changes and requirements are closely monitored duringdevelopment and changes are meticulously catalogued.
Dissemination of the information across the system teams aredone expeditiously using management information tools.
Management of changes is given high priority to ensure thesuccess of operational launches.
