Flight dynamics support services provide for the planning, designing, implementation, enhancement, evaluation, integration, testing and conducting of the flight dynamics services and systems provided at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) for the Navigation And Mission Design Branch (NMDB) and the Attitude Control Systems Engineering Branch (ACSEB) within the Mission Engineering And Systems Analysis (MESA) division at GSFC. The Navigation And Mission Design Branch (NMDB) and the Attitude Control Systems Engineering Branch (ACSEB) within the Mission Engineering And Systems Analysis (MESA) division at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) are responsible for providing analytic and operational expertise for orbit and attitude systems, dynamics modeling, control analyses, and estimation and simulation of space vehicles. The branches create and maintain state-of-the-art analysis tools for mission design, trajectory optimization, orbit analysis, navigation, attitude determination, and controls analysis. The branches also provide the expertise to support a wide range of flight dynamics services, such as spacecraft mission design, on-orbit sensor calibration, launch support, and orbit operations. An active technology development program is maintained, with special emphasis on developing new techniques and algorithms for autonomous orbit/attitude systems and advanced approaches for trajectory design the NMDB flight dynamics support services provide for the planning, designing, implementation, enhancement, evaluation, integration, testing and conducting of the flight dynamics services and systems provided at GSFC. The flight dynamics disciplines include spacecraft navigation (orbit determination), trajectory control, mission design, attitude determination, attitude dynamics and attitude control. Unique mission support and network services are also provided. Flight dynamics mission support efforts involve the determination of mission flight dynamics requirements and the planning necessary to satisfy the mission/project needs. Technology development is performed in the areas of navigation, trajectory design and flight dynamics automation. Flight regimes supported include single satellite and satellite formations in low-earth, high-earth, gravity assist, libration point, non-earth planetary and interplanetary orbit. Operational facility modernization planning, development, implementation and sustaining services are also provided. Operations support is primarily provided through the NMDB's Flight Dynamics Facility (FDF). This contract is to provide the efforts required to provide flight dynamics analysis, operations, system development and technology support for the NMDB and ACSEB. Areas of support provided by this contract include the following areas: flight dynamics operations operations support orbit determination and analysis tracking data evaluation and calibration acquisition data mission planning and scheduling products maneuver planning support human space flight support expendable launch vehicle support USSTRATCOM liaison flight dynamics system engineering FDF system engineering system facilities sustaining engineering model maintenance automation techniques conjunction assessment flight dynamics analysis flight project support navigation analysis mission design maneuver planning attitude determination and control analysis ground system development technology advanced navigation techniques advanced mission design techniques advanced attitude techniques formation flying techniques commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) evaluation cave advanced visualization environment conjunction assessment risk analysis relative navigation system development
