ODAR Section 4: Assessment of Spacecraft Intentional Breakups and
Potential for Explosions.
Potential causes of spacecraft breakup during deployment and mission operations:
There is no credible scenario that would result in spacecraft breakup during normal
deployment and operations.
Summary of failure modes and effects analyses of all credible failure modes which may
lead to an accidental explosion:
In-mission failure of a battery cell protection circuit could lead to a short circuit resulting
in overheating and a very remote possibility of battery cell explosion. The battery safety
systems discussed in the FMEA (see requirement 4.4-1 below) describe the combined
faults that must occur for any of seven (7) independent, mutually exclusive failure modes
to lead to explosion.
In addition to the battery protection mentioned about, the Pathfinder battery unit features
two thermal switches which completely isolate the battery electrically if the temperature
gets too high.
Detailed plan for any designed spacecraft breakup, including explosions and intentional
collisions:
There are no planned breakups.
List of components which shall be passivated at End of Mission (EOM) including method
of passivation and amount which cannot be passivated:
The butane propulsion system shall be passivated at the end of mission by operating the
system to propellant depletion in a perigee lowering maneuver. However, it is expected
that all propellant will have already been depleted before the end of the operational
mission.
Rationale for all items which are required to be passivated, but cannot be due to their
design:
Pathfinder battery charge circuits include overcharge protection and a parallel design to
limit the risk of battery failure. However, in the unlikely event that a battery cell does
explosively rupture, the small size, mass, and potential energy, of these small batteries is
such that while the spacecraft could be expected to vent gases, most debris from the
battery rupture should be contained within the vessel due to the lack of penetration
Page 9

energy.

Assessment of spacecraft compliance with Requirements 4.4-1 through 4.4-4:
Requirement 4.4-1: Limiting the risk to other space systems from accidental explosions
during deployment and mission operations while in orbit about Earth or the Moon:

For each spacecraft and launch vehicle orbital stage employed for a mission, the program
or project shall demonstrate, via failure mode and effects analyses or equivalent analyses,
that the integrated probability of explosion for all credible failure modes of each
spacecraft and launch vehicle is less than 0.001 (excluding small particle impacts)
(Requirement 56449).

Compliance statement:

Required Probability: 0.001.
Expected probability: 0.000.

Supporting Rationale and FMEA details:
Battery explosion:
Effect: All failure modes below might theoretically result in battery explosion
with the possibility of orbital debris generation. However, in the unlikely event
that a battery cell does explosively rupture, the small size, mass, and potential
energy, of the selected COTS batteries is such that while the spacecraft could be
expected to vent gases, most debris from the battery rupture should be contained
within the vessel due to the lack of penetration energy.
Probability: Extremely Low. It is believed to be a much less than 0.1%
probability that multiple independent (not common mode) faults must occur for
each failure mode to cause the ultimate effect (explosion).

Failure mode 1: Internal short circuit.

Mitigation 1: Qualification and acceptance shock, vibration, thermal cycling, and
vacuum tests followed by maximum system rate-limited charge and discharge to
prove that no internal short circuit sensitivity exists.

Combined faults required for realized failure: Environmental testing AND
functional charge/discharge tests must both be ineffective in discovery of the
failure mode.

Failure Mode 2: Internal thermal rise due to high load discharge rate.

Mitigation 2: Cells were tested in lab for high load discharge rates in a variety of
flight-like configurations to determine like likelihood and impact of an out-of-
Page 10

Pathfinder-1 Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)

control thermal rise in the cell. Cells were also tested in a hot environment to test
the upper limit of the cells capability. No failures were seen.

Combined faults required for realized failure: Spacecraft thermal design must be
incorrect AND external over-current detection and disconnect function must fail
to enable this failure mode.

Failure Mode 3: Excessive discharge rate or short circuit due to external device
failure or terminal contact with conductors not at battery voltage levels (due to
abrasion or inadequate proximity separation).

Mitigation 3: This failure mode is negated by a) qualification-tested short circuit
protection on each external circuit, b) design of battery packs and insulators such
that no contact with nearby board traces is possible without being caused by some
other mechanical failure, c) obviation of such other mechanical failures by proto-
qualification and acceptance environmental tests (shock, vibration, thermal
cycling, and thermal-vacuum tests).

Combined faults required for realized failure: An external load must fail/short-
circuit AND external over-current detection and disconnect function failure must
all occur to enable this failure mode.

Failure Mode 4: Inoperable vents.

Mitigation 4: Battery vents are not inhibited by the battery holder design or the
spacecraft.

Combined effects required for realized failure: The final assembler fails to install
proper venting.

Failure Mode 5: Crushing.

Mitigation 5: This mode is negated by spacecraft design. There are no moving
parts in the proximity of the batteries.

Combined faults required for realized failure: A catastrophic failure must occur
in an external system AND the failure must cause a collision sufficient to crush
the batteries leading to an internal short circuit AND the satellite must be in a
naturally sustained orbit at the time the crushing occurs.

Failure Mode 6: Low level current leakage or short-circuit through battery pack
case or due to moisture-based degradation of insulators.

Mitigation 6: These modes are negated by a) battery holder/case design made of
non-conductive plastic, and b) operation in vacuum such that no moisture can
Page 11

Pathfinder-1 Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)

affect insulators.

Combined faults required for realized failure: Abrasion or piercing failure of
circuit board coating or wire insulators AND dislocation of battery packs AND
failure of battery terminal insulators AND failure to detect such failure modes in
environmental tests must occur to result in this failure mode.

Failure Mode 7: Excess temperatures due to orbital environment and high
discharge combined.

Mitigation 7: The spacecraft thermal design will negate this possibility. Thermal
rise has been analyzed in combination with space environment temperatures
showing that batteries do not exceed normal allowable operating temperatures
which are well below temperatures of concern for explosions.

Combined faults required for realized failure: Thermal analysis AND thermal
design AND mission simulations in thermal-vacuum chamber testing AND over-
current monitoring and control must all fail for this failure mode to occur.

Requirement 4.4-2: Design for passivation after completion of mission operations while
in orbit about Earth or the Moon:

Design of all spacecraft and launch vehicle orbital stages shall include the ability to
deplete all onboard sources of stored energy and disconnect all energy generation
sources when they are no longer required for mission operations or postmission disposal
or control to a level which cannot cause an explosion or deflagration large enough to
release orbital debris or break up the spacecraft (Requirement 56450).

Compliance statement:
Pathfinder battery charge circuits include overcharge protection and a parallel
design to limit the risk of battery failure. However, in the unlikely event that a
battery cell does explosively rupture, the small size, mass, and potential energy,
of these small batteries is such that while the spacecraft could be expected to vent
gases, most debris from the battery rupture should be contained within the vessel
due to the lack of penetration energy.

Requirement 4.4-3. Limiting the long-term risk to other space systems from planned
breakups:

Compliance statement:
This requirement is not applicable. There are no planned breakups.

Requirement 4.4-4: Limiting the short-term risk to other space systems from planned
breakups:

Page 12

Pathfinder-1 Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)

Compliance statement:
This requirement is not applicable. There are no planned breakups.

ODAR Section 5: Assessment of Spacecraft Potential for On-Orbit
Collisions
Assessment of spacecraft compliance with Requirements 4.5-1 and 4.5-2 (per DAS v2.0.2,
and calculation methods provided in NASA-STD-8719.14, section 4.5.4):
Requirement 4.5-1: Limiting debris generated by collisions with large objects when
operating in Earth orbit:
For each spacecraft and launch vehicle orbital stage in or passing through LEO, the
program or project shall demonstrate that, during the orbital lifetime of each spacecraft
and orbital stage, the probability of accidental collision with space objects larger than 10
cm in diameter is less than 0.001 (Requirement 56506).

Large Object Impact and Debris Generation Probability:
Collision Probability: 0. 00001 ; COMPLIANT.

Requirement 4.5-2: Limiting debris generated by collisions with small objects when
operating in Earth or lunar orbit:
For each spacecraft, the program or project shall demonstrate that, during the mission of
the spacecraft, the probability of accidental collision with orbital debris and meteoroids
sufficient to prevent compliance with the applicable postmission disposal requirements is
less than 0.01 (Requirement 56507).

Small Object Impact and Debris Generation Probability:
Collision Probability: 0.009856; COMPLIANT.

Identification of all systems or components required to accomplish any postmission
disposal operation, including passivation and maneuvering:
An orbit change following deployment from the launch vehicle is required to accomplish
post-mission disposal. The satellite’s propulsion system will be used to lower the orbit
from 670 x 670 km to 485 x 670 km. From this orbit, the satellite orbit will naturally
decay such that the satellite burns up in Earth’s atmosphere in 20 years.

ODAR Section 6: Assessment of Spacecraft Post-mission Disposal Plans
and Procedures
6.1 Description of spacecraft disposal option selected: After completing its planned operations, the
satellite will deorbit naturally by atmospheric re-entry. At the end of the Pathfinder-1’s operational
life (i.e. at EOM) the attitude control system will stop counteracting the aerodynamic disturbance

Page 13

Pathfinder-1 Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)

torques and will rotate the satellite into the maximum drag configuration. This will result in
Pathfinder gradually assuming a dynamically stable configuration. For atmospheric drag / re-entry
calculations in DAS, the minimum plausible cross-section drag area of 41 x 47.5 cm was assumed
(smallest spacecraft side facing the velocity direction). This is conservative because it represents the
minimum cross section possible with the satellite in any orientation, ignores protuberances, and ignores
gravity gradient, ignores solar pressure torques, and ignores the high-drag orientation set at EOM.

6.2 Plan for any spacecraft maneuvers required to accomplish postmission disposal:
No maneuvers are required following normal operations. During operations, however, an orbit
lowering maneuver is required. This will be completed as early in the mission as practical after
spacecraft subsystems go through checkout procedures.

6.3 Calculation of area-to-mass ratio after postmission disposal, if the controlled reentry option is
not selected:
Spacecraft Mass: 41.82 km
Cross-sectional Area: 0.1947 m2
Area to mass ratio: 0.0047 m2/kg
6.4 Assessment of spacecraft compliance with Requirements 4.6-1 through 4.6-5 (per DAS
v 2.0.2 and NASA-STD-8719.14 section):
Requirement 4.6-1: Disposal for space structures passing through LEO:
A spacecraft or orbital stage with a perigee altitude below 2000 km shall be disposed of by one
of three methods:
(Requirement 56557)
a. Atmospheric reentry option:
 Leave the space structure in an orbit in which natural forces will lead to atmospheric
reentry within 25 years after the completion of mission but no more than 30 years after
launch; or
 Maneuver the space structure into a controlled de-orbit trajectory as soon as practical
after completion of mission.
b. Storage orbit option: Maneuver the space structure into an orbit with perigee altitude greater
than 2000 km and apogee less than GEO - 500 km.
c. Direct retrieval: Retrieve the space structure and remove it from orbit within 10 years after
completion of mission.

Requirement 4.6-2. Disposal for space structures near GEO.
Analysis: Not applicable.

Requirement 4.6-3. Disposal for space structures between LEO and GEO.
Analysis: Not applicable.

Requirement 4.6-4. Reliability of Postmission Disposal Operations
Analysis: The minimum drag configuration is the aerodynamically stable state, and
provides the worst-case re-entry time. This minimum drag configuration was assumed
for atmospheric re-entry analysis.

$Pathfinder-1 Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR) ODAR Section 7: Assessment of Spacecraft Reentry Hazards Assessment of spacecraft compliance with Requirement 4.7-1: Requirement 4.7-1: Limit the risk of human casualty: The potential for human casualty is assumed for any object with an impacting kinetic energy in excess of 15 joules: a) For uncontrolled reentry, the risk of human casualty from surviving debris shall not exceed 0.0001 (1:10,000) (Requirement 56626). Summary Analysis Results: DAS v2.0.2 reports that Pathfinder-1 is compliant with the requirement. According to DAS calculations, there is a low probability that some1 spacecraft components (primary mirror, a machined disk of Invar, and machined blocks of aluminum) may reach the ground (see DAS input data below for input parameters). However, the DAS software does not currently allow explicit modeling of a the specific geometries for these components, so these numbers are expected to be larger than anticipated due to conservatism in the inputs provided to DAS. Total human casualty probability is reported by the DAS software as 1:29,000 for Pathfinder-1. This is expected to represent the absolute maximum casualty risk, as calculated with DAS's limited modeling capability.

Even with these components accounted for, Pathfinder-1 is still compliant with this requirement. Page 17$

=============== End of Requirement 4.7-1 ===============
Requirements 4.7-1b, and 4.7-1c below are non-applicable requirements because
Pathfinder does not use controlled reentry.

4.7-1, b) NOT APPLICABLE. For controlled reentry, the selected trajectory shall
ensure that no surviving debris impact with a kinetic energy greater than 15 joules is
closer than 370 km from foreign landmasses, or is within 50 km from the continental
U.S., territories of the U.S., and the permanent ice pack of Antarctica (Requirement
56627).
4.7-1 c) NOT APPLICABLE. For controlled reentries, the product of the probability of
failure of the reentry burn (from Requirement 4.6-4.b) and the risk of human casualty
assuming uncontrolled reentry shall not exceed 0.0001 (1:10,000) (Requirement 56628).

ODAR Section 8: Assessment for Tether Missions
Not applicable. There are no tethers on the Pathfinder satellites.
