                                                  Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


Assessment Report Format:
ODAR Technical Sections Format Requirements:
As Planet Labs Inc. is a US company, this ODAR follows the format recommended in NASA-
STD-8719.14, Appendix A.1 and includes the content indicated at a minimum in each section 2
through 8 below for the Flock 1c satellites. Sections 9 through 14 apply to the launch vehicle
ODAR and are not covered here.

ODAR Section 1: Program Management and Mission Overview
Project Manager: Chris Boshuizen
Foreign government or space agency participation: Russia and Ukraine share ownership of
ISC Kosmotras, who operate the Dnepr space launch vehicle.
Schedule of upcoming mission milestones:
       FRR:                                        April 2014
       Launch:                                     June 2014

Mission Overview:
The “Flock 1c” constellation, comprising of 11 satellites, will be ejected from multiple 3U
cubesat deployer pods into a Sun-synchronous circular orbit. Once deployed, Flock 1c will
perform Earth observation tasks and operate for a predicted duration of 24 months.
ODAR Summary: No debris released in normal operations; no credible scenario for breakups;
the collision probability with other objects is compliant with NASA standards; and the estimated
nominal decay lifetime due to atmospheric drag is under 25 years following operations.
Launch vehicle and launch site: Dnepr - Yasny, Russia
Mission duration: Maximum Nominal Operations: 24 months, Post-Operations Orbit lifetime:
20.4 years until reentry via atmospheric orbital decay (22.4 years in total).
Constellation size: 11 satellites, all having the same design.
Launch and deployment profile, including all parking, transfer, and operational orbits
with apogee, perigee, and inclination:
       The Dnepr rocket, being able to restart to perform orbit changing maneuvers, will be
       dispensing several payloads to various orbits.
       The Flock 1c satellites will deploy to, and decay naturally from, a circular orbit defined
       as follows:
               Apogee: 620 km
               Perigee: 620 km
               Inclination: 97.98 degrees

                                                                                                    Flock 1c
                                                  Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


       The Flock 1c satellites have no propulsion and therefore do not actively change their
       orbit. There is no parking or transfer orbit.


ODAR Section 2: Spacecraft Description
This ODAR will state compliance to most requirements by only considering one satellite at a
time. This approach is viable due to the fact that all the satellites in the constellation have the
same design and orbital parameters.
Physical description of the spacecraft:
All the Flock 1c satellites conform to the 3U CubeSat specification, with a launch mass of 4.5
kg. Basic physical dimensions are 100mm x 100mm x 340mm, with two 260mm x 300mm
deployable solar arrays.
The satellite load bearing structure is comprised of three 100mm x 100mm skeleton plates, with
L rails along each 300mm corner edge. The solar arrays are spring-loaded and burn-wire
deployed.
Power storage is provided by Lithium-Ion cells. The batteries will be recharged by solar cells
mounted on the body of the satellite and on the two deployable solar panels.
Total satellite mass at launch, including all propellants and fluids: 4.5 kg.
Dry mass of satellites at launch, excluding solid rocket motor propellants: 4.5 kg
Description of all propulsion systems (cold gas, mono-propellant, bi-propellant, electric,
nuclear): None.
Identification, including mass and pressure, of all fluids (liquids and gases) planned to be
on board and a description of the fluid loading plan or strategies, excluding fluids in sealed
heat pipes: None
Fluids in Pressurized Batteries: None. The Flock 1c satellites use unpressurized standard
COTS Lithium-Ion battery cells. Each battery has a height of 65mm, a diameter of 14mmm and a
weight of 26 grams.

                                                  Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


Description of attitude control system and indication of the normal attitude of the
spacecraft with respect to the
velocity vector:
Each satellite has 3-axis
magnetorquers and reaction wheels,
which allow the satellite to de-spin
after initial satellite deployment, 'lock'
to the magnetic field, and perform 3-
axis control. The nominal attitude will
be flying 'edge on', with the bus' long
(3U) axis nadir-pointing and two solar
arrays laying in the orbital plane,
facing towards the sun vector (A). At
the end of operations, the 3-axis               Figure 1: A - 'edge on' attitude during operations
controller will be used to rotate the satellite B - 'max drag' attitude at End of Mission (v = velocity)
into maximum drag configuration, which is
also the dynamically stable
orientation (B).

Description of any range safety or other pyrotechnic devices: No pyrotechnic devices are
used.
Description of the electrical generation and storage system: Standard COTS Lithium-Ion
battery cells are charged before payload integration and provide electrical energy during the
mission. The cells are recharged by solar cells mounted on the deployable arrays. The battery
cell protection circuit manages the charging cycle.
Identification of any other sources of stored energy not noted above: None.
Identification of any radioactive materials on board: None.


ODAR Section 3: Assessment of Spacecraft Debris Released during Normal
Operations
Identification of any object (>1 mm) expected to be released from the spacecraft any time
after launch, including object dimensions, mass, and material: There are no intentional
releases.
Rationale/necessity for release of each object: N/A.
Time of release of each object, relative to launch time: N/A.
Release velocity of each object with respect to spacecraft: N/A.
Expected orbital parameters (apogee, perigee, and inclination) of each object after release:
N/A.

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. The deployment of the three solar arrays will feature a simple spring
       and stopper system, released by a simple burn-wire. The probability of a detachment
       during deployment is negligible.
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:
       None. The 12 batteries on each satellite will not be passivated at End of Mission due to
       the low risk and low impact of explosive rupturing. The maximum total energy stored in
       each battery is 12kJ.
Rationale for all items which are required to be passivated, but cannot be due to their
design:
       The satellites’ 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.

      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                 COMPLIANT.


             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
             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.

                                                                                      Flock 1c
                                    Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


 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 4: 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 5: 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 6: 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 7: 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
 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.

                                                Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


             Mitigation 8: 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 can not cause an explosion or deflagration large enough to
      release orbital debris or break up the spacecraft (Requirement 56450).

             Compliance statement:
             COMPLIANT. As has been stated before, the 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:

             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:
            Once this document has been printed it will be considered an uncontrolled document.

                                          Orbital Debris Assessment Report (ODAR)


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: 0.000003;           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: 0.000289; COMPLIANT.

Identification of all systems or components required to accomplish any postmission
disposal operation, including passivation and maneuvering:
To actively place the satellite in the final "maximum drag" configuration requires the
flight computer and ADCS subsystems to be working. However, this configuration is the
dynamically stable state for the satellite, so even in the event of system failure this
attitude will eventually be achieved.


Collision risk between Flock 1c satellites:
The risk of collision between the 11 satellites of the constellation is negligible. The
Dnepr upper stage releases its payloads while constantly firing its engines, thus providing
slightly different orbits for every sequentially released payload. Even these small
differences in semi-major axis will quite quickly spread the satellites over the orbital
plane.

ODAR Section 6: Assessment of Spacecraft Post-mission Disposal Plans and
Procedures
6.1 Description of spacecraft disposal option selected: Each satellite will de-orbit naturally by
    atmospheric re-entry. At the end of Flock 1c's operational life (i.e. at EOM) the attitude
    control system of each satellite will stop counteracting the aerodynamic disturbance torques
    and will rotate the satellite into the maximum drag configuration. This will result in each
    satellite gradually assuming a dynamically stable configuration. To determine this stable
    orientation, an in-house developed aerodynamic simulation based on free-molecular flow
    with a simplified particle/surface interaction model (NASA SP-8058 eq 2-2) was used to
    compute force and moment coefficients for the spacecraft in all attitudes. In the event that
    satellite functionality ceases before the EOM maneuver is completed, the gravity gradient
    and aerodynamics torques will naturally force the satellite to the dynamically stable,
    maximum drag configuration.

6.2 Plan for any spacecraft maneuvers required to accomplish postmission disposal:
   The stable maximum drag configuration enables aerodynamic reentry. To accelerate the
   orbital decay, the satellite will be placed in this maximum drag configuration at the end of
   operations.
6.3 Calculation of area-to-mass ratio after postmission disposal, if the controlled reentry
    option is not selected:
       Spacecraft Mass: 4.5kg
       Cross-sectional Area: 0.039 m2 (conservative value)
       Area to mass ratio: 0.00867 m2/kg (conservative value)
6.4 Assessment of spacecraft compliance with Requirements 4.6-1 through 4.6-4 (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.

after completion of mission.

Analysis: The reentry of each satellite in Flock 1c is COMPLIANT using method “a”.

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 all Flock 1c satellites are compliant with
the requirement. Total human casualty probability is reported by the DAS software as 0.000000
for the Flock 1c satellites. This is expected to represent the absolute maximum casualty risk, as
calculated with DAS's limited modeling capability.

       Requirements 4.7-1b, and 4.7-1c below are non-applicable requirements because the
       satellites do 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).
