The Deep Space Network Progress Report 42-33, March and April 1976

This report describes work performed for the JPL/NASA Deep Space Network (DSN). Progress is presented on DSN supporting research and technology, advanced development and engineering, and implementation, and DSN operations which pertain to mission-independent or multiple-mission development as well as to support of flight projects. Each issue contains a description of the functions and facilities of the DSN.

Structural Integrity and Durability of Reusable Space Propulsion Systems

A two-day conference on the structural integrity and durability of reusable space propulsion systems was held on June 4 and 5, 1985, at the NASA Lewis Research Center. Presentations were made by industry, university, and government researchers organized into four sessions: aerothermodynamic loads; structural dynamics, fatigue, fracture, and constitutive modeling; and instrumentation. The principal objectives of the conference were to disseminate research results to date and future plans in each of the four areas. This publication contains the extended abstracts and the visual material presented during the conference.

SMS/GOES cell and battery data analysis report

The nickel-cadmium battery design developed for the Synchronous Meteorological Satellite (SMS) and Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) provided background and guidelines for future development, manufacture, and application of spacecraft batteries. SMS/GOES battery design, development, qualification testing, acceptance testing, and life testing/mission performance characteristics were evaluated for correlation with battery cell manufacturing process variables.

Petrogenesis of Lunar Rocks: Rb-Sr Constraints and Lack of H2O

Rb and Sr isotopic data and other chemical data indicate major lunar differentiation at about 4.6 AE (AE = 10 9 years) and very limited subsequent differentiation. The constraints of limited differentiation after 4.6 AE and the apparent lack of H20 on the Moon, when applied to the derivation and petrogenesis of lunar samples, suggest the following: (1) soil samples, breccias, metaclastic rocks, and feldspathic basalts represent mixtures of repeatedly modified clastic material, which was ultimately derived from materials formed during the ~ 4.6 AE differentiation; and (2) mare basalts crystallized from melts which formed by partial melting, and which developed without equilibration between the melt and crystalline residuum.
