Reliability Estimation for Mission Extension NASA Approach/Recommendations

Present NASA's current and recommended concepts for Mission Extension and De-orbit reliability Methodologies. NASA's current and recommended approaches ensuring de-orbit requirements are not unnecessarily driving mission design efforts or adding incresed costs or risks to manufacturing solutions without providing benefit to missionsand will assist in moving reliability estimation from piece part performance estimates to component history and system-level testing based estimations.

A Framework for Reliability and Safety Analysis of Complex Space Missions

Long duration and complex mission scenarios are characteristics of NASA's human exploration of Mars, and will provide unprecedented challenges. Systems reliability and safety will become increasingly demanding and management of uncertainty will be increasingly important. NASA's current pioneering strategy recognizes and relies upon assurance of crew and asset safety. In this regard, flexibility to develop and innovate in the emergence of new design environments and methodologies, encompassing modeling of complex systems, is essential to meet the challenges.
