Abstract
This document provides the framework of mission success assurance for space-flight projects developed within the Center for Space Systems (CSS). These guidelines, protocols, and procedures were defined during the development of the first project within the laboratory: the Rapid Reconnaissance and Response (R3
) small satellite mission. The document first details the guidelines and systems put in place for requirement development and verification, the integration and test program, and the hardware development best practices. It then enters into a discussion of how this framework was implemented for R3
, including specific details and examples of the tests planned and executed. The Requirement Verification Matrix (RVM) developed for R3
is provided as an Appendix in both electronic and hard copy as a model. Templates of all documentation developed to support CSS flight projects are also provided as an Appendix in both electronic and digital versions. All documentation of the R3
verification and testing program (hardware inspections, test planning forms, test completion records, etc.) is provided in an electronic appendix that is provided alongside this document.
