Abstract | The European Space Agency's Smart-1 spacecraft has been in orbit around the Moon since February 2005. The Smart-1 Science and Technology Operations Coordination Centre (STOC) for ESA's first lunar mission is based within the Planetary Missions Division, making it the first in a series of interplanetary missions that will have their Science Operations Centre based in ESA. This small team of science operations engineers is responsible for proposing and coordinating all of the payload operations based on an established set of science-themes, prioritised targets and desired observation conditions identified in advance of the mission by the Smart-1 instrument scientists. This paper will summarise the initial goals of Smart-1, then reflect on the achievements and setbacks experienced within each phase of the mission. It will highlight the pro-active planning approach adopted by the STOC, which aims to optimise the science return of the Smart-1 mission. The lessons learned from this approach will be addressed, leading to recommendations for future missions from the perspective of the science operations manager. © 2006 by VEGA. ESA. |
