Micro - helm - a mission operation visualization system

Abstract

Micro-Helm is a PC based mission visualization system that can be employed for comprehensive monitoring of mission system states during operation. Micro-Helm was designed as a cost-effective system solution that can be adapted to multiple missions in various mission lifecycle phases. It has been successfully applied to DS1 mission during its entire operation phases and Mars Odyssey mission during its launch and orbit-insertion phase, providing scenario design and validation.
