Launch Site Selection
1/28/2016
POSSIBLE LAUNCH LOCATIONS
• There were two major factors considered when choosing a site:
• The latitude at which the site is located
• The launch vehicles that each site will support
Space Port Location Latitude
Cape Canaveral Air Force Station United States 28.489° N
Vandenberg Air Force Base United States 34.733° N
Baikonor Cosmodrome Kazakastan (Russia) 45.955° N
Xichang Satellite Launch Center China 28.246° N
Tanegashima Space Center Japan 30.391° N
Guiana Space Center French Guiana (ESA) 5.327° N
Satish Dhawan Space Center India 13.737° N
LATITUDE AND DELTA V
• Based on a desired
orbit inclination of
about 28°
• Difference in Δv
between a latitude of
0° and 90° is 0.4633
km/s.
• Best to launch from
latitude with similar
value as desired angle
• Questions?
BACKUP SLIDE
• Same table as before but with two additional sites, the launch vehicles the site has plans to launch in the near future and the max payload to LEO of the most powerful launch vehicle.

Additional Numbers: Δv required for LEO at 0°

BACKUP SLIDES 2 H LAMBERT ARC TRANSFER
Here is the analysis for the 2H Lambert Arc Transfer to the Moon’s
Orbit. This proved to be more expensive, in terms of delta V, than the
1H Lambert Arc Transfer. Clearly these hyperbolic options are both way
more expensive than the currently chosen Hohmann Transfer, but we
wanted to consider all options. This can at least be used as an
emergency plan to get to the moon in about 2 days if that were needed.
Below is a table with the minimum from both transfer types.

• Using the delta V from Earth to LEO that the Propulsion Team calculated, I was able to obtain a total delta V for a mission to the Moon. The total delta V was then used to output a propellant mass fraction, payload percentage, and a fuel percentage that can be passed along to Mike and the Systems Team.

Table 3: Total Mission Breakdown
• This is not the final decision, we are looking at the payload percentage for each orbit and what we can and cannot take to LEO, and how we will then get that to CLO. We are looking to follow the Storyboard Mike created and determine how much fuel we will need to get the payloads where they need to be.
BACKUP SLIDES STK VISUALIZATION FROM EARTH TO MOON ORBIT (EARTH FRAME)
From Earth to LEO, we believe we can insert the spacecraft in the right inclined orbit to be aligned with the Moon. Here is the Hohmann transfer that is currently being used from an orbit around the Earth to the Moon’s Orbit. This is in the Earth Frame. The previous STK model was considered from the Moon frame. After the Hohmann Transfer gets the spacecraft to the Moon’s vicinity, the delta V will be applied to send the spacecraft into a hyperbolic translunar injection. In this transfer orbit, the spacecraft will enter the sphere of influence parallel to the Moon’s velocity in a polar orbit. This allows free delta V to be obtained. From there is will enter the LAO (Lunar Arrival Orbit). This is just a general orbit around the Moon. A Hohmann Transfer will be used to get the spacecraft into the chosen 5,000 km CLO (Circular Lunar Orbit). From there, another delta V will be applied to land on the surface. Using STK, I was able to prove that the generated delta V’s and orbits are plausible. As discussed previously, this was an orbit that was found to be stable around the Moon. We are currently looking into lower circular orbits that are equally or more stable. This would allow for increased performance in communications and a smaller required delta V to descend to the surface.

LAMBERT ARCS & MASS RATIOS DETERMINING AN EFFICIENT TRAJECTORY
• LEO to Lunar orbit: ΔV ≈ 4.20 km/s • Varied TOF and transfer angle • Hohmann Transfer best option for missions
NEXT STEPS GENERALIZING ΔV ESTIMATES
Excerpt from the Storyboard Information Spreadsheet by Mike Young
• Comprehensive Earth to Moon Trajectory code • Credits to Jay Millane for code
• Systems and Propulsion need realistic numbers • ΔV = 4.791 km/s for LEO – Circular Lunar Orbit
• ΔV = 7.447 km/s for LEO – Lunar Surface
BACKUP SLIDES 2B LAMBERT ARCS
The ΔV requirements for 1B and 2B lambert arcs
were calculated using a function file created by
Jay Millane. The analysis showed that, not
surprisingly, the most efficient possible path had a
transfer angle of 180 degrees, and a time of flight
close to the minimum energy time of flight. This
corresponds to a general Hohmann transfer. The
ΔV required was calculated from LEO to a
5000km Lunar orbit. The Earth and Moon were
assumed to be coplanar with circular orbits for this
initial estimate. The table below summarizes the
most efficient results obtained from the ΔV
analysis.
Most Efficient ΔV 4.20 km/s
Most Efficient TOF 5.10 Days
Most Efficient Mass Ratio

Habitat Missions Lunar Surface 8+ 59.580
Using the ΔV’s obtained in our code, we were able to begin to piece together a general total ΔV requirement for the first portion of the overall mission. These numbers are valid for any mission involving going to a polar lunar orbit, or landing on the lunar surface. This past week, the base location was chosen to be in Cabeus Crater which is situated near the south pole on the Moon. Any lunar surface mission is assumed to be landing near the south pole which is what was taken into consideration while obtaining the ΔV numbers in the code. Rough Estimate for Early Mission ΔV Requirements: 86.890 km/s The systems and propulsion teams mentioned that they were looking for rough ΔV estimates so that they could piece together mass capabilities of each mission.

This code uses a function that was written to calculate lambert arcs. The initial radius, final radius, transfer angle, time of flight, and gravitational parameter of the central body were placed into the function. From there, ΔV was calculated using vector relationships. The mass ratios were obtained using the rocket equation.

DEFINING THE PROBLEM SUMMARY
1. Proper inclination on arrival at the Moon can be
achieved cheaply by controlling exactly how we
approach it.
2. Need estimated of ΔV cost of plane changes in Lunar
orbit for sizing purposes.
Analysis Overview
Objective Minimize ΔV for a 15o plane change around the Moon.
Variables Intermediate elliptical orbits. Circular orbit radius.
RESULTS
Orbital Radius ΔV Cost
1740 km (Lunar Surface)
0.438 km/s
5000 km 0.258 km/s
• Considered ellipses with
eccentricities up to 0.9.
• A transfer ellipse makes
plane changes more
expensive up until about
45o
• All plane changes
should be made in the
original orbit to minimize
ΔV costs.

ELECTRIC PROPULSION
ARCHITECTURE -Goal for the transfer vehicle is to move a 20-30 Mg payload from LEO to GEO
-The payload will then separate from the electric transfer vehicle and perform a chemical burn to the moon
-The electric transfer vehicle will spiral back to LEO to be mated with the next cargo mission
ELECTRIC TRANSFER VEHICLE
Specifications of the Electric Transfer Vehicle:
-109 NSTAR engines
-Providing a total 10 N of thrust (.092 N each)
-Propellant used is Xenon
-Uses 250 kW of power total
-For moving a 30 Mg payload:
-Propellant required: 7,351 kg
-Transit Time (Round trip): ~1 year
ELECTRIC TRANSFER VEHICLE
Physical Dimensions and Feasibility
-Engine diameter is 30 cm
-Approximately 148 engines could fit on a vehicle the same diameter as the core of a Falcon Heavy
-60% efficient – so the vehicle would need to dissipate ~100 kW
-Would need to be refueled in LEO between missions (ISS)
-7,351 kg of Xenon costs $8.8m
-Changes overall architecture to Falcon Heavies and Falcon 9’s instead of large numbers of SLS launches. In theory a ~75% reduction in cost.

SOLAR CELL COMPARISONS • Monocrystalline, polycrystalline
• Older technology
• Efficiencies between 14% and 22%
• Multi-junction
• Forefront of technology
• Commercially available with 29%
efficiency
• Over 40% efficiency achieved in lab
CONCLUSIONS
• Solar cells will not be a
good choice as a main
power source for the lunar
base
• Even worse as a power
source on Mars
• Possible uses
• Auxiliary power
• Vehicles

• Modeled as a composite cylinder
• Stresses found due to a load of 4087500 N
• Assume four landing struts equally holding 10 Mg lander on Moon surface
• Load applied 12 degrees from vertical
• Analysis shows that Carbon Fiber composite can withstand initial test load
Load P = 4087.50 kN
Fails around 600 MPa
LANDING GEAR
• Interpolated experimental data to estimate effects of cold temperatures
on composite material
• At -175 degrees Celsius, stiffness is lowered by 80%
• Acceptable landing loads decrease as the landing site gets colder
