Safe and Precise Landing Integrated Capabilities Evolution (SPLICE)

NASA needs for entry, descent, and landing call for improved Precision Landing and Hazard Avoidance (PL&HA) technologies. SPLICE continues to develop, mature, demonstrate, and infuse these technologies as a portfolio. SPLICE will achieve TRL 5 on a hazard detection lidar mapping sensor and TRL 6 on two key flight software libraries for advanced guidance and hazard detection. A High-Performance Space Computing surrogate multiprocessor (ARM A53) integrates sensors and FSW. This portfolio of technologies may be infused separately or fully integrated.

Mars Science Laboratory Flight Software Boot Robustness Testing Project Report

On the surface of Mars, the Mars Science Laboratory will boot up its flight computers every morning, having charged the batteries through the night. This boot process is complicated, critical, and affected by numerous hardware states that can be difficult to test. The hardware test beds do not facilitate testing a long duration of back-to-back unmanned automated tests, and although the software simulation has provided the necessary functionality and fidelity for this boot testing, there has not been support for the full flexibility necessary for this task. Therefore to perform this testing a framework has been build around the software simulation that supports running automated tests loading a variety of starting configurations for software and hardware states. This implementation has been tested against the nominal cases to validate the methodology, and support for configuring off-nominal cases is ongoing. The implication of this testing is that the introduction of input configurations that have yet proved difficult to test may reveal boot scenarios worth higher fidelity investigation, and in other cases increase confidence in the robustness of the flight software boot process.

MAV Software Development: Streamlined Collaboration for MSR

This poster presents the coordinated efforts of the Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) software development teams, encompassing Flight Software, Ground Software, and Hardware-in-the-Loop Labs. This collaborative approach, which stems from the Artemis program, ensures efficiency in preparing for the Mars Sample Return (MSR) mission, focusing on the critical role of software integration for mission success.
