[Isocops] IBEX Orbit #603 ATS Approval (31 Mar - 09 Apr 2023)

All,

Note: Angle at descending after apogee sun precession maneuver: 3.921 deg
          Angle at orbit 604 apogee after perigee sun precession
maneuver: 4.873
deg

I have looked at the orbit 603 ATS,

IBEX_2023_090_o0603a_v002.scr,


and I approve.


The only constraint violations in


IBEX_2023_090_o0603a_v002.ccvr


are from the removal of the


ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable


commands (2) and the proximity of contacts; the violations are expected.

Ascending and descending command sequences are consistent with each other,
15 Re ascending, the apogee maneuver time and 15 Re descending as
determined from the OEF,

IBEX_2023_090_o0603a_v002.oef,


and as verified with ibex_orbit.

There are two star tracker outages.  The first starts 1.5+ days before 15
Re descending and runs for 1.5- days.  The second starts about 1 hour
before 15 Re descending and runs for 9 hours.  Some despinning may be
required due to the first outage.

The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit
rates match those in the contacts file,

IBEX_Orbit603_Contacts_v2.txt,


for all contacts (2).


We are doing battery cell balancing and the balancing commands are correct
and offset by enough time from other commands.


The inertial precession maneuver at perigee of orbit 602 leaves us pointing
in safe directions for the orbit 603 arc A ascending and descending
sequences:


ibex_rotate -o -u 0.990755,0.12778,0.045572 -w ibex-sun -t

The sun precession maneuver at apogee leaves us pointing in safe directions
at the time of the maneuver and for arc B ascending and descending
sequences:

Lo Normal mode for the entire orbit.


There is no overlap with orbit 602 commands by manual inspection or by
checking at

Command Approval Checklist is attached.
