Closed Loop Guidance Trade Study for Space Launch System Block-1B Vehicle

Abstract

NASA is currently building the Space Launch System (SLS) Block-1 launch vehicle for the Exploration Mission 1 (EM-1) test flight. Since EM-1 has an exo-atmospheric flight profile similar to the Space Shuttle, Block-1 guidance utilizes the shuttle-heritage Powered Explicit Guidance (PEG) algorithm. The Block-1 implementation of PEG has been thoroughly tested, and is robust to certain failure scenarios, including loss of a single core engine.
