Title: Space operations center construction, flight support, and satellite servicing
Abstract: The Space Operations Center will have 3 primary missions: (1) construction of large satellites and platforms, (2) flight support of orbital transfer vehicles, including manned and unmanned vehicles, and (3) satellite servicing, including tending of attached payload modules, spacecraft stationkeeping with the SOC, and remotely located satellites. This paper describes some of the facilities, equipment, and operations involved in conducting these missions. The data described in this paper are from an on-going system analysis study and therefore should not be considered as final.
