Project Title
MSS Camera Concept Study
9F052-120293/A
Description of Project
On behalf of Canadian Space Agency (CSA) located in St-Hubert, Quebec, bids are requested from bidders on the 2012 CSA Exploration Core Concept Study for the replacement of the cameras with enhancement options on the Mobile Servicing System (MSS) of the International Space Station (ISS).
The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) is responsible for the MSS which was used to assemble the ISS on-orbit. As -art of its sustaining operations and International Space Station (ISS) inspection tasks, the Mobile Servicing System (MSS) is now playing a key role in the logistics and maintenance of the ISS, Free Flyer and/or Visiting Vehicle robotic capture, installation, removal and operation of science and technical demonstrations existing and planned for the ISS.
With the life extension of the ISS, the available space units and the actual failure rate of the current cameras, there is a requirement to initiate the procurement of new units.
This requirement requests proposals for Concept Studies to explore options on the replacement of the Mobile Servicing System Cameras on the ISS, namely the Camera Light and Pan/Tilt Unit Assembly (CLPA) and the Camera and Light Assembly (CLA). This activity also brings an opportunity to implement enhancements to the baseline MSS cameras and develop new capabilities on the ISS.
Requirement Development is part of the Exploration Core program of the Canadian Space Agency. Through Requirement Development, Exploration Core supports CSA's exploration planning activities and defines the science and technology developments most likely to be required in future space exploration missions of interest to Canada, and assesses potential contributions that Canada could make to such missions. Concept Studies are part of the Requirement Development activity.
