- Description
The EventSat mission is a 6U CubeSat technology demonstration mission that is focused on evaluating event-based cameras for space situational awareness. Building upon existing work, which has demonstrated the effectiveness of these cameras on ground in conjunction with telescopes, our mission seeks to demonstrate the effectiveness of this class of camera for space-based observation. The EventSat mission payload has two objectives, carefully selected to maximize the impact of this technology demonstration and to address key performance questions about the use of event cameras in orbit. First, the mission seeks to develop a database of space-based event camera observations. Second, the mission will identify resident space objects in the event cameras field of view using the event camera.
The planned timeline for the mission involves a preliminary design review in early fall 2025, and a CDR in spring 2026. At present, there is a need to develop the associated systems engineering for the CubeSat mission, namely the requirements definition, organization, traceability, and mapping to mission verification outcomes. This semester thesis will focus on coalescing all requirements for the EventSat mission to create a comprehensive requirements document, developing an organization system to ensure future requirements have meaningful IDs and organization, and providing an initial assessment mapping system requirements to design outcomes. This project is an excellent opportunity for students to get hands-on systems engineering experience in the context of a real CubeSat mission.
