(2002) Abstract: A test error was suspected during ground performance tes

Environmental requirements analysis should clearly identify and discriminate between the various specified flight proje

3、ct environments.Description of Driving Event: The Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) is an Earth observing instrument with focal plane arrays that are mechanically cooled to 63 degrees K. to reduce the instrument thermal background. During ambient performance testing of the instrument (Referen

The ERD (Reference (2) is the JPL document that specifies the environments the mission will encounter

The hot operating temperature limit imposed by the ERD was found to pertain solely to the extreme low temperature science data collection periods. The ERD did not specify environmental limits for ambient, “non-science” operating condition

Because the JPL ERD (or other Centers equivalent documentation) is the primary source of flight system environmental parameters, and the derived specifications for test leve

Definition of environmental requirements should clearly identify and discriminate between the various project life-cycle environments, ground test, bake-out, ground transport, launch, flight

Environments that are thought to be relatively benign, such as the ambient ground environment, must be defined with the same care as in-flight environments.4.
