Executive Summarybull Team FLARE of the University of Texas at Austin has been tasked with confirming the flyby anomaly

notably experienced first by Galileo in 1990 followed by NEAR Cassini Messenger and Rosetta

bull The anomaly takes the form of an unaccounted for change in energyvelocity which takes place around periapse of a hyperbolic planetary flyby during which their is a change in declination The velocity anomalies vary by as much as 135 mms from precisely modeled values

bull A phenomenological formula which relates the velocity discrepancy to a change in declination excess velocity and a constant scaling factor serves to guide a flyby trajectory corollary to the anomaly

bull Many causes have been conjectured accounted for or otherwise proved innocent (from atmospheric drag to modifications to inertia) A thorough investigation of the navigation software and mathematical models used for navigation by JPL uncovered two potential culprits (high order gravity terms and anisotropy of the speed of light)

bull Team FLARErsquos proposed design is an affordable CubeSat mission whose goal is to gather more data points on the anomaly to corroborate its existence

Executive Summary

Speaker Graeme Ramsey

Background | Mission Statements | Requirements | Constraints | ConOps | Baseline | Trade Studies | Design Selection 2

The primary benefit from this mission is filling in the gap of closest approach left by most heritage missions and in the process prove whether the anomaly truly exists Furthermore the data gained from FLARE would allow further evaluation of the two most probable explanations of the anomaly

This endeavor will lead to more accurate trajectory propagation methods by further characterizing this anomalous perturbation By those standards objects like Earth rendezvousing asteroids will be predictable to a higher degree

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

Heritage missions navigation precision details [24-26 26]

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

bull Explanations of the flyby anomaly focus on modeling errorsbull Higher order gravity termsbull Anisotropy of the speed of light

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Executive Summarybull Team FLARE of the University of Texas at Austin has been tasked with confirming the flyby anomaly

notably experienced first by Galileo in 1990 followed by NEAR Cassini Messenger and Rosetta

bull The anomaly takes the form of an unaccounted for change in energyvelocity which takes place around periapse of a hyperbolic planetary flyby during which their is a change in declination The velocity anomalies vary by as much as 135 mms from precisely modeled values

bull A phenomenological formula which relates the velocity discrepancy to a change in declination excess velocity and a constant scaling factor serves to guide a flyby trajectory corollary to the anomaly

bull Many causes have been conjectured accounted for or otherwise proved innocent (from atmospheric drag to modifications to inertia) A thorough investigation of the navigation software and mathematical models used for navigation by JPL uncovered two potential culprits (high order gravity terms and anisotropy of the speed of light)

bull Team FLARErsquos proposed design is an affordable CubeSat mission whose goal is to gather more data points on the anomaly to corroborate its existence

Executive Summary

Speaker Graeme Ramsey

Background | Mission Statements | Requirements | Constraints | ConOps | Baseline | Trade Studies | Design Selection 2

The primary benefit from this mission is filling in the gap of closest approach left by most heritage missions and in the process prove whether the anomaly truly exists Furthermore the data gained from FLARE would allow further evaluation of the two most probable explanations of the anomaly

This endeavor will lead to more accurate trajectory propagation methods by further characterizing this anomalous perturbation By those standards objects like Earth rendezvousing asteroids will be predictable to a higher degree

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

Heritage missions navigation precision details [24-26 26]

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

bull Explanations of the flyby anomaly focus on modeling errorsbull Higher order gravity termsbull Anisotropy of the speed of light

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Executive Summarybull Team FLARE of the University of Texas at Austin has been tasked with confirming the flyby anomaly

notably experienced first by Galileo in 1990 followed by NEAR Cassini Messenger and Rosetta

bull The anomaly takes the form of an unaccounted for change in energyvelocity which takes place around periapse of a hyperbolic planetary flyby during which their is a change in declination The velocity anomalies vary by as much as 135 mms from precisely modeled values

bull A phenomenological formula which relates the velocity discrepancy to a change in declination excess velocity and a constant scaling factor serves to guide a flyby trajectory corollary to the anomaly

bull Many causes have been conjectured accounted for or otherwise proved innocent (from atmospheric drag to modifications to inertia) A thorough investigation of the navigation software and mathematical models used for navigation by JPL uncovered two potential culprits (high order gravity terms and anisotropy of the speed of light)

bull Team FLARErsquos proposed design is an affordable CubeSat mission whose goal is to gather more data points on the anomaly to corroborate its existence

Executive Summary

Speaker Graeme Ramsey

Background | Mission Statements | Requirements | Constraints | ConOps | Baseline | Trade Studies | Design Selection 2

The primary benefit from this mission is filling in the gap of closest approach left by most heritage missions and in the process prove whether the anomaly truly exists Furthermore the data gained from FLARE would allow further evaluation of the two most probable explanations of the anomaly

This endeavor will lead to more accurate trajectory propagation methods by further characterizing this anomalous perturbation By those standards objects like Earth rendezvousing asteroids will be predictable to a higher degree

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

Heritage missions navigation precision details [24-26 26]

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

bull Explanations of the flyby anomaly focus on modeling errorsbull Higher order gravity termsbull Anisotropy of the speed of light

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Executive Summary

Speaker Graeme Ramsey

Background | Mission Statements | Requirements | Constraints | ConOps | Baseline | Trade Studies | Design Selection 2

The primary benefit from this mission is filling in the gap of closest approach left by most heritage missions and in the process prove whether the anomaly truly exists Furthermore the data gained from FLARE would allow further evaluation of the two most probable explanations of the anomaly

This endeavor will lead to more accurate trajectory propagation methods by further characterizing this anomalous perturbation By those standards objects like Earth rendezvousing asteroids will be predictable to a higher degree

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

Heritage missions navigation precision details [24-26 26]

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

bull Explanations of the flyby anomaly focus on modeling errorsbull Higher order gravity termsbull Anisotropy of the speed of light

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Heritage Mission Data Acquisition Overview

Heritage missions navigation precision details [24-26 26]

bull Instruments used on heritage missions to obtain velocity databull With these instruments NEAR measured the highest change in hyperbolic excess

velocity whereas Juno measured no apparent changebull Uniquely Juno incorporated 50x50 and 100x100 gravitational modeling leading to

mismatch between expected and apparent anomaly in fact no apparent anomaly [36]

bull Explanations of the flyby anomaly focus on modeling errorsbull Higher order gravity termsbull Anisotropy of the speed of light

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Dominate Anomaly Sources (JUNO) High Order Gravity Terms and Anisotropy of the Speed of Light

bull HOGT Truncation in Earthrsquos geopotential model is actually a perturbation capable of producing something detectable in real time comparable to the predicted flyby anomaly [36]

bull ASL The flyby anomalies result from the assumption that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames but the speed of light is not invariant and isotropic only with respect to a dynamical 3-space [44]

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Primary Requirementsbull [A] The system shall be capable of gathering the velocity profile during the inbound

and outbound legs of a hyperbolic flyby trajectory of Earth

bull [B] This project will provide at least 4 velocity profiles associated with the flyby phenomenon in its projected lifetime

bull [C] The system shall be capable of tracking the velocity the satellite experiencing the hyperbolic flyby anomaly during closest approach on the order of 01 mms accuracy

bull [D] The mission design shall perform velocity data collection on ldquopairedrdquo flybys (with minimal separation) at the above mentioned accuracy (~01 mms) including coverage throughout closest approach

Speaker Graeme Ramsey

Background | Mission Statements | Requirements | Constraints | ConOps | Baseline | Trade Studies | Design Selection 8

Secondary Requirementsbull A The trajectory of the satellites during closest approach shall be monitored with GPS including

backside lobe GNSS tracking the use of tens of ground stations and post processing for added accuracy

bull B Confirmation of an anomalous DV shall be achieved via (Doppler effects) X-band radio broadcasting during the flyby phases

bull C The error of Doppler velocity measurements shall be at maximum 05 mms

bull D The satellites will be constrained to a standard 3u6u format

bull E The satellites will perform flybys with sufficient hyperbolic excess velocity and change in declination to produce an anomaly of at least plusmn3 mms

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Day in the Life CubeSat Orientationbull Heliocentric

ndash Solar panels point toward sun intermittentlyndash Stable spin (Z-axis)tumble to distribute heat passivelyndash MCM maneuver and reaction wheel desaturationndash Small course correction in weeks leading to and days following flyby

bull Inout bound flybyndash X-band patch antennas (plusmn Z faces) face towards DSN station of interestndash A slow spin about the Z-axis wouldnrsquot distort data (preprocessed signal)ndash Trajectory profile gathered in intervals

bull Closest approach flybyndash SLR reflector (plusmn Z faces) would be pointed towards the relevant stationndash GPS signals received stored and then relayed when appropriatendash (optional) Radio tracking via relevant station (DSN or ESA based on position and slew rate)ndash No spin about the Z-axis is preferred due to the slewing necessity at this phase

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km

Trade Study Separationbull Considerations

ndash Trackability sets inner boundsbull Assume single receiver slew rate to track then reset for second pass

bull FLARE perigee pass length ~2597s for 180 degrees

bull Slew time to return to track 2nd satellite 450s

ndash Minimum separation of 3047s = 11651km at Vinf

ndash Similitude sets outer boundsbull Orbit does not depend on planetary synodic periods

bull Important parameter is direction of inclination of equator to the ecliptic rate of change 099 degday

bull For small angle change results in increased MCM to achieve heliocentric transit

ndash Increased separation increases deltaV for MCM amp separation maneuver

ndash Select separation near minimum w safety margin ~6000s = 22942km
