Logistics Transfer Methods – Offloading SPLCs from CLPS

Abstract

Presentation is accompanied by "Lunar Logistics Frequently Asked Questions" document. This document contains an evolving set of assumptions and ideas pertaining to the provision, delivery, transportation and accommodation of logistics for the lunar surface operations at Artemis Base Camp. It does not represent requirements, but a starting point from which partners can iterate. Given that the systems and the location for Artemis Base Camp are still being determined, the attached document represents a snapshot in time of ideas and some bounding constraints with respect to logistics operations. Partners are free to challenge operational constructs and assumptions to achieve better solutions. The concepts and assumptions in this document serve as a starting point for innovation to help identify factors that need to be considered for logistics operations and system design. It will be updated periodically as more information is developed and refined, and eventually serve as a basis for documenting ground rules and assumptions, leading eventually to requirements in the future.
